I have just signed the contract for my second book, How to Read Middle English Poetry, forthcoming from Oxford University Press.
How to Read explains, in clear, student-friendly terms, how to find, understand, and analyse English poetry 1150–1500, for study or pleasure. I built the book to be useful even if you don’t have a great library or anthology to hand. Where possible, the discussion uses poetry in the fine TEAMS-METS series, which all have stable print forms, but can be read for free online.
