| Sumario: | <I>New Medieval Literatures</I> is an annual of work on medieval textual cultures, aiming to engage with intellectual and cultural pluralism in the Middle Ages and now. Its scope is inclusive of workacross the theoretical, archival, philological, and historicist methodologies associated with medieval literary studies, and embraces both the British Isles and Europe.<BR> Essays in this volume engage with the relations between humans and nonhumans; the power of inanimate objects to animate humans and texts; literary deployments of medical, aesthetic, and economic discourses; the language of friendship; and the surprising value of early readers' casual annotations. Texts discussed include <I>Beowulf</I>, works by Rolle, Chaucer, Langland, Gower, and Lydgate; lyrics of the Occitan troubadourMarcabru and the French poet Richard de Fournival; and the Anglo-Saxon versions of Boethius's <I>De Consolatione Philosophiae</I> and Augustine's <I>Soliloquia</I>.<BR><BR> Wendy Scase is Geoffrey Shepherd Professor of Medieval English Literature at the University of Birmingham; David Lawton is Professor of English at Washington University, St Louis; Laura Ashe is Associate Professor of English at Worcester College, Oxford.<BR><BR>Contributors: Diane Cady, Aaron Hostetter, Boyda Johnstone, R.
