Philip Knox’s new book has been published in the new Oxford Studies in Medieval Literature and Culture series at OUP. The book looks again at fourteenth-century literary history from the perspective of a single text, the thirteenth-century French love allegory and medieval ‘bestseller’, the Romance of the Rose, and thinks about Chaucer, Gower, Langland, and the Gawain-poet, as well as the history of reading, the relationship between England and Europe, and how texts traverse time and space.
