5.0 out of 5 stars Reliable Middle English Text, April 3, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Siege of Thebes (TEAMS Middle English Texts Kalamazoo) (Paperback)
As a fan of Middle English, it can be difficult to find texts and know they are in fact in Middle English and not translated. In _The Siege of Thebes_, you'll find a well put together text in its natural state.

Chaucerians will enjoy Lydgate's extension of _The Canterbury Tales_ and find the Host depicted with a reasonable amount of vigor and ribald humor. The story is filled with drama, adventure, and Middle Ages convention, which makes for an interesting read and an excellent comparison to other noteworthy writers of the 14th and 15th centuries. As Middle English texts go, this one is quite easy to follow and is perhaps even one of the "easiest" texts available.

The notes are efficient though often obvious. However, that means it is accessible to the beginner Middle English reader and not just the advanced reader. I recommend reading the intro after reading the text, since it is ponderous and will make more sense following an intricate reading of the actual poem. In all, this is a worthwhile Middle English text and an asset to any reader's collection.

Excellant example of Middle English text. If you want to know what the Kynges of England read during their life time, you found it.
