The ME Mirror, a fourteenth-century prose translation of the
thirteenth-century AN Miroir by Robert de Gretham, is a text of
cultural and linguistic value. As a cycle of sermons addressed to a
lay audience, it offers extensive material for the study of popular
preaching in fourteenth-century England. Four of the six surviving
manuscripts exemplify that variety of fourteenth-century London
language designated "Type II" by M. L. Samuels. Only brief,
unedited extracts or quotations from the Mirror have hitherto
appeared in print; a full critical edition will not appear for many
years. This edition, based on MS Hunterian 250, Glasgow University
Library, one of the "Type II" manuscripts, aims to present a
sizeable sample of the Mirror including the Prologue and a
representative selection of sermons with the Anglo-Norman source
text given in parallel.
