Product Description

Review

"The diverse problems Piers Plowman has posed for modern criticism have made ample opportunity for a thoroughly unfocused work, but this collection of essays holds together remarkably well. . . . All are excellent and each covers a remarkable amount of material. . . This book is an essential starting point for an examination of Piers, whatever facet of the poem one wishes to look at, and is an excellent introduction to late 14th-century literature. Highly recommended." -- Choice --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

From the Inside Flap

"Absolutely essential reading for anyone interested in a serious consideration of Piers Plowman and also for anyone planning critical or scholarly investigation on it--in other words, for all students of the poem, all readers of the poem, and all scholars of the poem."--Robert Worth Frank, Jr.
