Book excerpt: Excerpt from On the Middle English Metrical Romance of Emare The primitive form of the saga may be reconstructed by a careful comparison of the versions. In barest outline it was probably much as follows. A prince whose wife is dead desires to marry his daughter. On her refusal, her hands are cut off, and she ﬂees with treasure to a foreign land. A young king hunting in a forest finds her, and marries her. During his absence in the wars she bears him a son (or two children). A traitor (generally her mother-in-law) forges a letter to the husband saying that the queen has borne a monster, and also, seeing that this produces no effect, forges a reply ordering the mother and child to be exposed or burnt. They are banished (in many versions, put in the sea), and protected in their exile' by a stranger. The queen's hands are restored. The husband on his return discovers the treachery, and burns the traitor. He ultimately rejoins his lost family. (afterwards the heroine is reconciled to her repentant father).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Medieval Romance in England: A Study of the Sources and Analogues of the Non-Cyclic Metrical Romances The amount of intensive work that has been done on the in dividual non-cyclic romances and the lack of any comprehensive effort to summarize the results have led almost equally to the present undertaking. For the purpose of selection the Middle English romances of this type offered a convenient and somewhat neglected group with which to begin. Though a few of them are relatively unimportant, others are versions of some of the most famous European stories of the Middle Ages, and for the sake of convenient reference it has seemed well to include the less with the more important. Each romance is treated indi vidually in a section, one part of which deals with Versions, and one with the Origins of the tale. Under Versions I have at tempted to give something of a life history of each legend by listing all of the literary versions which were composed before 1500, and by indicating so far as possible their relationship. In the section on Orzgms I have recorded the oplnlons of scholars on the historical and legendary elements that gave rise to the story and have tried to set forth the most important motifs which characterize the different versions. The Index of M otters and Literature at the close of the book is designed to co-ordinate this material and to reveal for these romances, as the similar in dex in Volume V of Professor Child's monumental edition of The English and Scottish Ballads revealed for the ballads, the recurrent themes, the stock situations, characters, incidents.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Popular romance was one of the most wide-spread forms of literature in the Middle Ages, yet despite its cultural centrality, and its fundamental importance for later literary developments, the genre has defied precise definition, its subject matter ranging from tales of chivalric adventure, to saintly women, and monsters that become human. The essays in this collection provide contexts, definitions, and explanations for the genre, particularly in an English context. Topics covered include genre and literary classification; race and ethnicity; gender; orality and performance; the romance and young readers; metre and form; printing culture; and reception.

Book excerpt: "This volume comprises a series of extracts from Medieval Romances. Critical attention is focused upon a significant but unwieldy body of Middle English writings by offering examples of them at their best form. Since the excerpts are chosen in accordance with a governing critical concept elaborated in the editor's Introduction, the reader is able to relate form to function, representative to type, in a coherent and worthwhile manner. The book provides a constructive Introduction which takes full account of the best and most recent opinions of scholars on the subject of "Romance." It is also alive to the needs of the modern reader, assuming that the search for understanding and historical orientation does not obscure but rather enhances enjoyment of the poetry." -Publisher.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Three Early English Metrical Romances: With an Introduction and Glossary The ancient minstrels, as a body, were editors and publishers, rather than original composers. They had to perform duties which, in these days, are divided amongst various caterers for the public in matters of taste. The office of minstrel was neither that of poet, editor, actor, nor musician, but a compound of all. To him it was indifferent where, or how, he acquired the tales, which it was his business to enact or recite, and upon which his popularity and living depended; general 1 speaking, we may imagine that it was a safer game to repeat well-known and popular stories, than to try a doubtful hazard with something new, or original. At the same time, it would be most desirable to give to the old tales an air of novelty, by introducing appropriate variations, and that he should, as far as possible, accommodate to his hearers, what had, perhaps, been composed for their fathers or grandfathers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Popular Romances of the Middle Ages These two conditions have, it is hoped, been strictly observed in the versions here given of these romances. While special care has been taken to guard against the introduction even of phrases not in harmony with the original narratives, not less pains have been bestowed on the task of preserving all that is essential in the narrative; and thus it may perhaps be safely said that the readers of this volume will obtain from it some adequate know ledge of the tales without having their attention and their patience overtaxed by a multiplicity of superﬂuous and therefore irksome details. Of the present version of the Arthur story, the most celebrated perhaps of all, it may be enough to say that it relates many important episodes which have been omitted in the versions recently published, while no attempt has been made to impart to the romance a more historical complexion than that which it received at the hands of Caxton's friend.
