New Medieval Literatures Volume 7
spotlights methodologies and practices in medieval textual studies. Ten
challenging new essays together explore contemporary medievalist
practices in and beyond the academy; review and critique disciplinary
cultures in medieval studies past and present; and experiment with new
paradigms. As usual, the volume showcases work by leading scholars
together with work by striking new voices. In this volume's analytical
survey 'Actually existing Anglo-Saxon Studies', Clare Lees imagines
alternatives to current disciplinary culture.
Readership:
Scholars and students of medieval literature, history, and culture.
