Summary:

The focus of this volume is the north of England and its regions in the late medieval period. Concentrating on the north as a centre of manuscript production, dissemination and reception, 'Revisiting the Medieval North of England' illustrates the fluidity of boundaries and communication, and the resulting links to different geographical regions.
