Penguin Classics have built their reputation as one of the largest
and most successful modern imprints for 'classic' texts on the
notion of 'the general reader'. Following an interrogation of this
idea, Leah Tether investigates the publication of medieval French
literature on this list and shines a light on the drivers,
motivations, negotiations and decision-making processes behind it.
Focusing on the medieval French texts published between c.1956 and
2000, Tether demonstrates that, rather than Penguin's frequently
cited 'general reader', a more academic market may have contributed
to ensuring the success of these titles.
