Recenzii
Anthony Bale and Sebastian Sobecki's Medieval English Travel is a wonderful anthology, in the full meaning of that word.
Antony Bale and Sebastian Sobecki's edited volume Medieval English Travel: A Critical Anthology is an invaluable resource for those studying and teaching Middle English travel writing.
The volume is well crafted, its texts carefully edited and readily accessible for undergraduates. An incredible resource for teachers . . . [It] will be a foundational starting-point for those interested in the field.
the volume will surely shape the scholarship of medieval travel, especially insofar as it invites consideration of understudied texts and documents. As a whole, this timely collection offers a treasure trove of primary sources that will help us better understand what medieval English people knew about the rest of the world, what they thought about it, and how they gained this knowledge or belief.
This is a welcome anthology as the field turns to a deeper understanding of and interest in the global Middle Ages. Medieval English Travel provides a thoughtful guide for studying the literature of travel in medieval England. Moreover, it entices readers to explore the topic further and gives them the tools to do so. I recommend this book for those teaching a class on medieval travel literature and those wishing to learn about it on their own.
This anthology is cogently divided into three sections as a means of guiding both the specialist academic reader and those who may not be familiar with the central purposes of medieval travel writing ... Each of the twenty-six items included in the second section of the anthology is introduced by a helpful account of its literary and historical significance ... this anthology also contains some fascinating material relating to recently discovered writings.
Highly recommended.
