The Ancrene Wisse is perhaps the most notable monument of Middle
English prose, its influence evident from the time of its
composition in the early thirteenth century until at least the
Reformation. As the only Early Middle English work of considerable
length to survive in more than two copies, it is a unique resource
for the study of textual variation according to dialect, date,
milieu and stylistic preferences. This edition presents four
versions-those of the early Corpus, Cleopatra and Nero manuscripts,
and the late and substantially modernised version of the Vernon
manuscript. To facilitate comparison, they are printed in parallel
form, line by line, and supplied with extensive notes. This volume,
containing the latter portion of the text and wordlists,
complements Vol. 7 in this series.
