The Cambridge Companion to Medieval English Law and Literature addresses this need by combining an authoritative guide through the bewildering maze of medieval law with concise examples illustrating how the law infiltrated literary texts during this period. Foundational chapters written by leading specialists in legal history prepare readers to be guided by noted literary scholars through unexpected conversations with the law found in numerous medieval texts, including major works by Chaucer, Langland, Gower, and Malory. Part I contains detailed introductions to legal concepts, practices and institutions in medieval England, and Part II covers medieval texts and authors whose verse and prose can be understood as engaging with the law. 650 0 $a Law and literature $z England $x History $y To 1500. 650 0 $a English literature $y Old English, ca. 450-1100 $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a English literature $y Middle English, 1100-1500 $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Law in literature. 700 1 $a Barrington, Candace, $e editor. 700 1 $a Sobecki, Sebastian I., $e editor. 830 0 $a Cambridge companions to literature 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317024823.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20191204013844.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=6B630CA4FF9A11E9A2D37E2597128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
