The volume contains three linguistic and four literary papers. The linguistic papers are devoted to Middle English spelling of fricatives, the temporal conjunction before in Medieval English and multiple negation in Late Middle and Early Modern English. The literary papers discuss Medieval East Anglian Drama, the making of language in Malory‘s Morte Darthur, a comparison of Chaucer‘s Troilus and Criseyde and Boethius‘s Consolation of Philosophy, and the analysis of Dame Sirith.
