The thirteenth-century Ancrene Wisse is one of the major
works of early Middle English prose, and was repeatedly revised and
adapted for different audiences. It has attracted much attention from
students of church history and women's studies as a highly influential,
important example of pastoral guidance for women religions. This is the
first edition to bring together the full manuscript evidence, and to
set it in its broader cultural and institutional context.
Volume II will be published in 2006.
Readership: Professional scholars, postgraduates specialising in
medieval English studies and history, medieval women's studies,
undergraduates (as a reference book).
