Book excerpt: Annotated bibliography covering two centuries of scholarly criticism on the extensive corpus of medieval saints' legends. with the assistance of Margaret RogersonSaints' legends are being increasingly recognised as one of the most important genres of the middle ages, and attract much critical attention. This volume surveys the scholarly literatureof the nineteenth and twentieth centuries on the extensive Middle English corpus. It also provides a conspectus of the genre's history in the Middle English period, and its place in the development of the modern discipline of Middle English, while both the introduction and the annotations give attention to the problematic boundaries between genres and to the issues involved in separating out texts from their manuscript contexts. General studies of the corpus as a whole are covered, as well as discussions and editions of individual legends, of the various extended cycles of legends, and of sermon collections that include hagiographic legends and exempla; the volume has been structured so as to provide an overview of the research on major works [for example the South English Legendary and St Erkenwald], and authors such as Osbern Bokenham, John Capgrave, William Caxton and John Mirk. It includesan Index of Scholars and Critics keyed to the Bibliography, an Index of Middle English Texts that covers all works, of whatever genre, mentioned in the annotations, and an Index of Manuscripts that gathers the references to the over 170 manuscripts cited.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Legends of Ss, Ninian and Machor: From an Unique Ms. In the Scottish Dialect of the Edited, With Introduction, Notes, Glossary Some years ago I edited for the Scottish d104 Society the entire series of Legends to which the two here printed belong. I have chosen these for separate editing because, in the first place, I agree with Dr. Horstmann that they are the two best legends in the series, and, in the second, because they are the only two out of the fifty Legends that make up the series that deal with Scottish Saints. Like other Legends of the Saints, they are valuable not only because of the language in which they are told, but also because of the insight they afford into the manners and customs of the past and of the hints they furnish respecting the moral and intellectual atmosphere prevailing among those for whom they were written and by Whom they were listened to and read. The Introduction was written and printed off some time ago. Had I to write it now, I might modify one or two of the phrases, but I do not think I should make any substantial alteration upon anything I have said.
