Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The B-version of Piers Plowman, probably the only version authorised by Langland, is the one most frequently read today, and the most influential form of the poem. This catalogue of the 18 extant manuscripts, now located in Cambridge, London, Oxford, Tokyo, and San Marino, California, offers both individual manuscript descriptions and a record of the annotations. The new and detailed codicological descriptions include information on provenance and ownership; a full list of the contents; and a description of the physical make-up and the presentation of each manuscript. The substantial first full account of the various textual annotations in each manuscript (whether produced by the original scribes or later readers) provides the best record available of how Piers Plowman was understood by its earliest audience.

Download or read book Piers Plowman Text written by William Langland and published by Longman Publishing Group. This book was released on 1995 with total page 796 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first volume of a two-volume parallel-text edition of Piers Plowman. It contains complete critical texts of all four versions of the poem (the A, B and C texts and also the Z texts, the authenticity of which is still under debate). Each text is provided with a full critical apparatus based on first-hand study of the manuscript evidence in the light of modern scholarly understanding of the ways in which medieval vernacular texts were copied and transmitted. The text has been edited in a format based on that pioneered by W W Skeat in his famous parallel-text edition of 1886. This edition differs from that of Skeat in that the whole process of editing has been carried out on the basis of a systematic comparison of the variant readings of all versions, and also in that the detailed textual apparatus is included with the texts, enabling the reader to evaluate the strength of the manuscript support at every stage. Volume Two will contain the critical introduction, text notes, commentary, bibliography and the important glossary. Together they will provide a full and convenient basis for advanced study of this great medieval poem.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Vision of William Concerning Piers the Plowman: In Three Parallel Texts, Together With Richard the Redeless I shewed how to distinguish MSS. of one text from those of the others, and printed the same passage from twenty-nine different MSS., in the hope of obtaining further information. Since then, fresh MSS. have been found from time to time, and we now know of forty-five copies', mostly of the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. A list of these is given further on. 2. Description of the A-text. The Vernon MS. (V.) is taken as the basis of the text, as far as 1. 180 of Passus xi., where it unfortunately comes to an end, owing to a leaf having been cut out of the MS. The text of the rest of Passus xi., viz. II. 181-303, is supplied from the Trinity MS. R. 3. 14 (T.). Pass. xii. (pp. 326-330) is supplied from MS. Rawlinson, Poet, 137, which is the only MS. containing the whole of this Passus. I give the various readings from the MS. in University College, Oxford (U.), which contains only the first 19 lines, and from the Ingilby MS. (Ing.), which contains lines 1-88, and actually supplies 5 new lines, viz. lines 65, 74-76, and 78. All three copies are inaccurate and unsatisfactory. In editing the A-text, as printed from the Vernon MS. (throughout the Prologue. and Pass. i. 1 to xi. 180), the Trinity MS. (Pass. xi. 181-303). and the Rawlinson MS. (Pass, xii.), I have mended the text in a few places by help of the various readings obtained from a collation of other MSS.; see p. 1. Notice of all such alterations is given in the footnotes at the bottom of the page. Thus, in A. prol. 14 (p. 3) the word trizely is from MS. T.; MS. V. has wonderliche, against the alliteration. The line A. prol. 34 (p. 5) is supplied from MS. T., being omitted in MS. V. altogether. All such alterations are fully described, and can be readily understood. As the chief object of the present Parallel Edition of the three texts is to exhibit the corresponding passages of each at a glance, the A-text is, for convenience, printed on the upper half of every page, whilst the B-text occupies the lower part of the page on the left hand, and the C-text the lower part of the page on the right.
