R. A. Shoaf, editor of Exemplaria and pioneer in making
scholarly articles on medieval studies available online, has issued an e-print of his book
Dante, Chaucer, and the
Currency of the Word: Money, Images, and Reference in Late Medieval Poetry (Norman,
OK: Pilgrim Books, 1983). Exemplaria also issues electronic "pre-prints" of
select articles, so be sure to check regularly.
Frederick
Martin's e-dissertation in progress, Pilgrimage
in the Age of Schism: Chaucer, Sociological Poetics, and the Canterbury
Tales (Tulane).
A major e-publishing venture, the 18 volume Cambridge History of English and
American Literature (1907-21) is now online at Bartleby.com
and offers substantive
articles on all aspects of medieval literature. In probably every
case the opinions and findings of these older scholars has been superceded
by recent investigations, but the CHMAL is still a grand resource and an
important critical milestone (11,000 pages & 303 chapters)
featuring essays by important figures in medieval literary
criticism. See particularly
- Vol. I: FROM THE BEGINNINGS TO THE CYCLES OF ROMANCE,
ed. by A. W. Ward & A. R. Waller. Essays include
- The
Beginnings
- Runes
and Manuscripts
- Early National Poetry
- Old English Christian Poetry
- Latin Writings in England to the
Time of Alfred
- Alfred and the Old English Prose of
his Reign
- From Alfred to the Conquest
- The Norman Conquest
- Latin Chroniclers from the Eleventh
to the Thirteenth Centuries
- English Scholars of Paris and
Franciscans of Oxford
- The Norman Conquest
- Arthurian Literature
- Metrical Romances
- The Pearl-Poet
- Prosody, and
-
Language Change
- Vol. II: THE END OF THE MIDDLE AGES,
ed. by A. W. Ward & A. R. Waller. Essays include:
- Piers Plowman
- Chaucer
- Gower
- Hawes
- The Scottish Chaucerians
- Religious Movements
of the 14th Century
- Early Printed Books
- Ballads
- Songs
- Anthologies,
- and Prose of the 15th Century
Please note: Although this older
criticism is substantial and important, any serious student must take into
account more contemporary research.

contribute to the success of this effort by informing Google

Only out-of-copyright books are
