This new edition, geared towards classroom use with its notes, introductions, gloss, and glossary, opens up the fascinating study of late medieval English history. This volume contains five sections: Poems of Political Prophecy; Anticlerical Poems and Documents; Literature of Richard II's Reign and the Peasants' Revolt; Poems against Simony and the Abuse of Money; and Plowman Writings-all tied together by a common attitude of satire and complaint, and a distrust of those who may abuse power. This volume would make an excellent source for a class on English satire or late medieval politics.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Medieval Institute Publications","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47892451426455,"sku":"9781879288645","price":2403.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781879288645.webp?v=1781187048","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/medieval-english-political-writings-9781879288645","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
