Edition of two romances translated and printed by William Caxton: Paris and Vienne and Blanchardyn and Eglantine.
Blanchardyn and Eglantine and Paris and Vienne were last edited in 1890 and 1957, respectively. The proposed edition incorporates recent scholarship and criticism, including new critical editions of French texts closely related to Caxton’s sources for both romances. Other relevant scholarly traditions include: studies of the two romances and late medieval romance in England and France; gender studies, especially the role of women in these narratives; scholarship relating to the owners and readers of Caxton’s romances and associated manuscripts; studies of courtesy literature and its relationship to romance; and scholarship on Caxton, his career, publications, prose style, and language.
