'Truthe is the beste' : A Festschrift in Honour of A.V.C. Schmidt, Paperback / softback Book

'Truthe is the beste' : A Festschrift in Honour of A.V.C. Schmidt Paperback / softback

Edited by Nicolas Jacobs, Gerald Morgan

Part of the Court Cultures of the Middle Ages and Renaissance series

Paperback / softback

Description

The thirteen essays in this book, presented in honour of Dr A.V.C. (Carl) Schmidt, are designed to reflect the range of his interests.

Dr Schmidt, who was a Fellow at Balliol College, Oxford from 1972 until his retirement in 2011, is best known for his comprehensive four-text edition of Piers Plowman, the fruit of a lifetime’s work on that text.

He has also made a major contribution to the study of Chaucer and the medieval English contemplatives, and these authors also find a place in this collection.

The essays presented here are intended to build upon the legacy of Carl Schmidt’s exemplary scholarship.
