Summary: An impressive anthology of erudite essays
Review: Collaboratively edited by Phillip Pulsiano (late Professor of English, Villanova University) and Elaine Treharne (Reader in Medieval Literature, University of Leicester), A Companion To Anglo-Saxon Literature is an impressive anthology of erudite essays written by scholars around the world on the topic of Anglo-Saxon literature, particularly that of the sixteenth through nineteenth centuries. Prose, poetry, religious, and secular literature are all discussed at length in this college-level analysis and presentation, which is very highly recommended for academic literary studies in general, and Medieval studies reference collections in particular.
