Since its rediscovery by nineteenth-century scholarship, Oxford, Bodleian Library MS Ashmole 61 has never been ignored, though it has also not gained a great deal of notoriety beyond the scholars of Middle English romance. It is hoped that the present volume will encourage study of the entire manuscript as a valuable witness to the devotional habits, cultural values, and popular tastes of late medieval England.
George Shuffelton, Professor of English at Carleton College, teaches medieval and early modern literature, with a particular focus on Middle English poetry. He has published work on Chaucer, Gower, Langland, and the representation of minstrels in Middle English poetry.
