Paperback. Condition: New. Jack of Newbury is an incisive yet remarkably entertaining work of narrative prose-and one that was extremely popular when it was published in the 1590s. The title character, an apprentice weaver, marries his former master's wife, expands her cloth business into an enormous enterprise, refuses Henry VIII's offer of a knighthood, and confronts Cardinal Wolsey; meanwhile, his servants find themselves in a range of comic situations. While amusing, Jack of Newbury also carries a serious and subversive political message: as Peter C. Herman puts it in his introduction to the volume, "the truly valuable subjects" in Deloney's narrative "are not the nobility, but the merchant class." The range of contextual materials included with this edition help to set it in the broader context of its economic and political as well as literary culture.…

Paperback. Condition: New. The early seventeenth-century traveler Thomas Coryate's five-month tour of Western Europe culminated in Coryats Crudities, one of the strangest travelogues published in early modern England. This edition abridges the Crudities' more than 900 pages to a manageable size, focusing on episodes most likely to be of interest to students-such as Coryate's descriptions of Venetian mountebanks, courtesans, and Jews; his crossing of the Alps; and his attendance at a Corpus Christi celebration in Paris.The selection of contextual materials includes illustrations from the first edition, along with a sampling from another eccentric feature of the Crudities: a collection of mock commendatory poems making fun of Coryate and his journey. …

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Arguably no medieval English literary work has had as far and wide a reach as Sir Thomas Malorys Le Morte Darthur; among the many adaptations are Tennysons Idylls of the King, Whites The Once and Future King, and the Lerner and Loewe musical Camelot. It might also be argued that the late twentieth- and early twenty-first-century tradition of fantasy literaturefrom The Lord of the Rings to Star Wars and beyondowes much to the Arthurian tradition, in which Malorys work is a key English text. Yet there has been no edition that draws on the results of the past generations scholarship while presenting Malorys work in a form that is at once true to the original and accessible to the modern reader.This new edition, which expands on the revised and expanded selection of Malory material that will be included in the third edition of The Broadview Anthology of British Literature, is all of those things. The extensive selections include most of the material concerning Launcelot, and all of the Mortes two fi nal tales; the language has been partially modernized to make the text accessible to the modern reader, while retaining the fl avor of the original; the text has been carefully prepared from the Winchester manuscript; and the annotations are extensive. This selected edition of Le Morte Darthur presents most of the material concerning Launcelot and all of the Mortes final two books in lightly modernized form.

It might also be argued that the late twentieth- and early twenty-first-century tradition of fantasy literature-from Tolkien's Lord of the Rings to George Lucas's Star Wars and beyond-owes much to the Arthurian tradition, rooted in English most strongly in Malory's Morte Darthur.
