Originally published in 1994, Oral Tradition in Middle English is
an edited collection providing a multidisciplinary look at the
importance and nature of oral tradition in Middle English
literature. The book offers a discussion of the gradual
problemization of orality and literacy in works of verbal art from
this period. It shows how early typographies proved too exclusive
to explain the heterogeneity of relevant texts, bringing to bear
the new and potentially productive concepts of "vocality" and
developing literacy. This book establishes a new interpretive
paradigm for Middle English poetry.
