Description:
"This anthology covers a period in English literature - from the death of Chaucer to the early years of Henry VIII's reign - which is relatively little known but which produced a variety of rich and fascinating work. The extracts chosen represent not only the familiar authors such as Malory, Henryson, Skelton, and More, and the well-known types of literature - songs and lyrics, ballads and romances - but also texts which have never before been published or are available only in very obscure editions." - from front flap of d/w.
