Synopsis

The 1989 York Manuscripts Conference celebrated the publication of A Lingusitic Atlas of Late Medieval English, a major research tool for English medievalists. The York conference brought together dialectologists, codicologists, editors, literary scholars and historians whose work engages in very diverse ways with aspects of regionalism in the middle ages. This volume, edited by Felicity Riddy, is a selection of twelve papers given on that occasion.It includes important papers from four of the editors of the Linguistic Atlas.
