William Dunbar

William Dunbar is widely recognised as a major medieval poet, probably the most brilliant between Chaucer and Spenser. This new addition to the Longman Annotated Texts series provides valuable coverage of seventy of Dunbar's finest poems. Each is complete with useful headnotes which discuss theme, genre, metrical form, text and evidence to date the poem where this is available. All poems have been provided with annotation and glosses to aid the reader's understanding, and Latin is translated into English throughout. The introduction provides a guide to the most important aspects of Dunbar and his poetry, and references to further reading. This edition of William Dunbar will be welcomed by students of Scottish and English literature, especially by those with an interest in the medieval and renaissance periods.
