This anthology, edited by Rebecca Berg Manor and Rebecca Allen, provides us with an excellent (and student-manageable) cross-section of literature that traces medieval culture from the beginnings of Christendom to the Age of Exploration. Newly updated from Beautiful Feet Books, this edition provides a broad selection of medieval authors who affected change in culture and religion. The 24 selections range from the Nicene Creed to a letter from Galileo. Selections, organized by literature type, include excerpts from Augustine’s Confessions (Early Christian), Deeds of Charlemagne (Romanesque), Battle of Brunanburh (Old English), Song of Roland (Arthurian), Song of the Creatures (Late Latin), selections of Divine Comedy (Medieval), Personal Accounts of the Plague (Middle Ages), Address to Christian Nobility (Reformation), and writings of Copernicus and Galileo (beginnings of the Renaissance).
