Book Synopsis English Hawking and Hunting in the Boke of St. Albans by : Juliana Berners
Download or read book English Hawking and Hunting in the Boke of St. Albans written by Juliana Berners and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1975 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Boke of St. Albans aimed to provide its readers with instruction in hawking, hunting, coat-armour and blazing arms, and the language proper to each. Compiled in 1486 from a number of sources by the 'Schoolmaster Printer' of St. Albans, it proved immediately popular and was well used for about a century and a half, forming the basis of several later works on the same subjects. Today its appeal is two-fold: being so very early an example of vernacular English provincial printing, it is of interest to the bibliographer and antiquarian, while in content it is of importance to any study of life in the late medieval and early renaissance period, and to an understanding of many references and allusions in the contemporary literature. This edition covers the first two sections (hawking and hunting), together with the additional and related material used by the printer to complete the last gathering of each, and aims in particular to facilitate an understanding of fifteenth-century sporting practice and terminology. The text is provided in facsimile, with a brief bibliographical and linguistic discussion, close examination of the sources, and detailed commentary upon the subject-matter. A useful feature is the classified index, which enables the book to be used as a reference work in conjunction with similar treatises and contemporary literature." --Book jacket.

Book Synopsis A Sporting Lexicon of the Fifteenth Century: The J.B. Treatise (2nd revised edition) by : David Scott-Macnab
Download or read book A Sporting Lexicon of the Fifteenth Century: The J.B. Treatise (2nd revised edition) written by David Scott-Macnab and published by Society for the Study of Medieval Languages and Literature. This book was released on 2017-07-15 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The J.B. Treatise is a collection of lore and information from the later fifteenth century on a range of topics considered essential learning for anyone aspiring to the English gentry. It has hitherto been known principally by way of an eclectic medley of filler material in the printed Boke of St Albans (1486), but survives in numerous variant forms in twenty-two, mostly unrelated, manuscripts. The treatise’s foremost concerns are hawking and hunting, but it differs from other contemporary treatises on these sports by concentrating on terminology rather than praxis. Much of its information is presented in the form of lists of terms, suggesting that it served mainly as a lexical primer rather than a manual of practical instruction. This study – which includes four major variant texts, explanatory notes, a glossary and complete collations of the ‘J.B.’ lists of collective nouns and carving terms – is the first comprehensive survey of all known versions of the J.B. Treatise, whose contents will be of interest to English medievalists in a range of disciplines, including history, literature and linguistics. This second edition of the J.B. Treatise includes comprehensive updates to the introduction, notes, and glossary to account for new scholarship, including numerous emendations to the OED prompted by lexical evidence presented in the first edition (2003). It also incorporates a revised bibliography and references to new editions of medieval texts.

Book Synopsis Arthurian Literature XXXVIII by : Kevin S. Whetter
Download or read book Arthurian Literature XXXVIII written by Kevin S. Whetter and published by Boydell & Brewer. This book was released on 2023-04-04 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arthurian Literature has established its position as the home for a great diversity of new research into Arthurian matters. It delivers fascinating material across genres, periods, and theoretical issues. TIMES LITERARY SUPPLEMENT This issue offers stimulating studies of a wide range of Arthurian texts and authors, from the Middle Ages to the nineteenth century, among which is the first winner of the Derek Brewer Essay Prize, awarded to a fascinating exploration of Ragnelle's strangeness in The Weddyng of Syr Gawen and Dame Ragnelle. It includes an exploration of Irish and Welsh cognates and possible sources for Merlin; Bakhtinian analysis of Geoffrey of Monmouth's playful discourse; and an account of the transmission of Geoffrey's text into Old Icelandic. In the Middle English tradition, there is an investigation of material Arthuriana in Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, followed by explorations of shame in Malory's Morte Darthur. The post-medieval articles see one paper devoted to the paratexts of sixteenth-century French Arthurian publishers; one to eighteenth-century Arthuriana; and one to a range of nineteenth-century rewritings of the virginity of Galahad and Percival's Sister. Two Notes close this volume: one on Geoffrey's Vita Merlini and a possible Irish source, and one on a likely source for Malory's linking of Trystram with the Book of Hunting and Hawking in an early form of The Book of St Albans.
