This is the first collection of essays dedicated to the topics of
money and economics in the English literature of the late Middle
Ages. These essays explore ways that late medieval economic thought
informs contemporary English texts and apply modern modes of
economic analysis to medieval literature. In so doing, they read
the importance and influence of historical records of practices as
aids to contextualizing these texts. They also apply recent modes
of economic history as a means to understand the questions the
texts ask about economics, trade, and money. Collectively, these
papers argue that both medieval and modern economic thought are key
to valuable historical contextualization of medieval literary
texts, but that this criticism can be advanced only if we also
recognize the specificity of the economic and social conditions of
late-medieval England.
