This is the first full critical edition of Rolle's major English writings, excepting only his glossed Psalter. Although the manuscript chosen as a base text is not in the original Northern dialect, it is of sufficient authority to restore many readings hitherto lost or corrupt, and its inclusion of two texts outside the established canon suggests that this should now be reappraised. The introduction extends the researches of H. E. Allen on Rolle manuscripts, discusses their relationships, and examines methods of textual transmission. In the notes, much of Rolle's possible source material is cited, and the edition concludes with a select glossary.

Review
'Her discussion is throughout lucid, judicious, and well supported, and her arguments are altogether persuasive ... Ogilvie-Thomson's discussion, a model of exact and discriminating analysis, reaches important new conclusions. This is an excelent edition, admirable in its scholarship, and it offers a wealth of important new material.' George Jack, University of St Andrews, English Studies
'an important edition ... Rolle is clearly an important writer and an improved text of his English works is an important publication.' John Frankis, University of Newcastle upon Tyne, Review of English Studies, Vol. XLI, No. 164
'The student of English mysticism and spirituality will be grateful for the arduous task the editor has undertaken' Wolfgang Riehle, ANGLIA
