The expanded selection, which now also includes Older Scots, invites readers to make any number of connections between these important works and a range of fascinating contextual material that includes chronicles; Continental romances; biblical tales; and other central Middle English poems, such as Sir Gawain and the Green Knight. The thematic groupings present a provocative stimulus to comparative reading, while the new critical pieces on madness, magic, history, and representations of Islam offer a thoughtful selection of fresh approaches to the texts. Professor Shepherd is to be thanked for providing a wonderful resource for students and teachers alike.” —Sarah Wood, University of Warwick
