In English literary and historical studies the border between the
Middle Ages and the Early Modern period, and hence between
'medieval' and 'early modern' studies, has become increasingly
permeable. Written by an international group of medievalists and
early modernists, the essays in this volume examine the ways in
which medieval culture was read and reconstructed by writers,
editors and scholars in early modern England. It also addresses the
reciprocal process: the way in which early modern England, while
apparently suppressing the medieval past, was in fact shaped and
constructed by it, albeit in ways that early modern thinkers had an
interest in suppressing. The book deals with this process as it is
played out not only in literature but also in visual culture - for
example in mapping - and in material culture - as in the physical
destruction of the medieval past in the early modern English
landscape.
