INTRO TO ENGLISH LIT OF THE MIDDLE AGES

The literature of the Middle Ages in England spans 800 years and three major linguistic changes! It is highly diverse, yet held together by the strong continuity of the Catholic Church and the publication efforts of monasteries. In this video I give an overview of three major periods: Anglo-Saxon literature, Anglo-Norman literature, and Middle English Literature.

You're welcome!

[@felixarquer7732]

Interesting!
Do you have a preferred translation of Sir Gawain?
Have you heard anything about how the Black Death supposedly helped reversing the progressive replacement of English by French?

[@ALovelyJaunt]

No, I don't. The only one I've read is the on included in the Norton Anthology I referenced.
And I haven't read anything about the relationship between the Bubonic Plague and language in England. Do you have any suggested resources on that?

[@felixarquer7732]

@@ALovelyJaunt I do. Since YT doesn’t seem to allow links, I’m copying the titles of an article and a podcast:
“Plague epidemics and the evolution of language in England”
;
“Episode 120: The End of the World”

[@ALovelyJaunt]
