Explore foundational scholarship on medieval and modern literature in this issue of The Modern Language Review.

This volume surveys language, literature, and textual history with careful analysis, notes, and reviews that illuminate how scholars approach texts from Skelton to Tristan and Isolt.

The issue offers in-depth discussion of linguistic development, editorial practice, and the transmission of medieval tales, along with miniature studies of authors and criticism across centuries. It’s a resource for readers who want a window into early 20th‑century philology and literary history, grounded in close reading and historical context.
  • Examination of how language develops and why phonology has shaped philology, with attention to how we study language today.
  • Detailed notes on Skelton’s writings, including emendations and textual considerations that guide modern editors.
  • Discussion of Tristan and Isolt traditions, Celtic roots, and the journey through different medieval renditions and redactions.
  • Critical reviews of contemporary books on Chaucer, Milton, Tennyson, and other figures, with insights into criticism and reception history.
Ideal for students, scholars, and general readers who value rigorous literary analysis, historical context, and the evolution of manuscript study. This edition serves as a reference point for understanding how early editors and critics approached medieval and modern literature alike.
