Klappentext
The first of this two-volume edition brings together leading scholars to offer the first full-scale literary history of Europe. Spanning the period 1348-1418, the volumes demonstrate in unprecedented detail what the free movement of European literature achieved through its variety, local peculiarity, and regenerative power.
