From the Publisher:
"Thorough in scope, Blanch's guide cites scholarly editions and translations, criticisms, and reference and pedagogical works pertaining to the 'Gawain' corpus. It intends to supplement Malcolm Andrew's 'The Gawain Poet: An Annotated Bibliography, 1839-1977' (1979). Its 942 entries, arranged alphabetically by author, editor, translator, or compiler, supply complete bibliographical citations followed by annotations that provide a vast amount of information; indeed, the scholarship is painstakingly thorough and well organized. Particularly gratifying is the inclusion of dissertations with abstracts. Also welcome is retention of the original Anglo-Saxon, Old English, Old French, and Latin terms and phrases. Exhaustive indexes, by keyword, line, subject, and author, refer to entry numbers. A 33-page introduction outlines the current state of 'Gawain' and 'Pearl' criticism. All by themselves, the references in the introduction are worth the attention of serious 'Gawain! ' scholars. Recommended for scholars, researchers, upper-division undergraduates, and graduate students."--CHOICE
