{"product_id":"9781879288645","title":"Medieval English Political Writings","description":"This volume collects poems and historical documents relevant to understanding the political climate of fourteenth- and fifteenth-century Britain, many of which have been out of print for a century. This new edition, geared towards classroom use with its notes, introductions, gloss, and glossary, opens up the fascinating study of late medieval English history. This volume contains five sections: Poems of Political Prophecy; Anticlerical Poems and Documents; Literature of Richard II's Reign and the Peasants' Revolt; Poems against Simony and the Abuse of Money; and Plowman Writings-all tied together by a common attitude of satire and complaint, and a distrust of those who may abuse power. This volume would make an excellent source for a class on English satire or late medieval politics.","brand":"Medieval Institute Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47033041551600,"sku":"9781879288645","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781879288645_p0.jpg?v=1763603332","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781879288645","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
