This collection re-evaluates the work of fifteenth-century poet
John Lydgate in light of medieval material culture. Top scholars in
the field unite here with critical newcomers to offer fresh
perspectives on the function of poetry on the cusp of the modern
age, and in particular on the way that poetry speaks to the
heightened relevance of material goods and possessions to the
formation of late medieval identity and literary taste. Advancing
in provocative ways the emerging fields of fifteenth-century
literary and cultural study, the volume as a whole explores the
role of the aesthetic not only in late medieval society but also in
our own.
