- An authoritative introduction outlining key historical events, social and political movements, and literary and cultural ideas of the time
- Informative headnotes, footnotes and section introductions, supporting the material and providing insights into how individual documents aid the reading of major texts
- A timeline and a chronological list of the major literary events of the period
- A comprehensive guide to further reading and useful websites
The Later Middle Ages: A Sourcebook makes available documents that are both important in their own right, and crucial for an understanding of the literary output of the period, challenging boundaries between text and context, literature and history.
