His two-volume anthology of twelfth-century Latin poetry, first published in 1872, is the fullest available and this reissue will be especially useful to scholars of medieval schools, religious life and satire, and those interested in medieval literature's relationship with the Latin classics. It remains the only published edition of important poems by Geoffrey of Winchester, Hugh the Chanter, Reginald of Canterbury, Serlo of Bayeux and Gualo Britto. Volume 2 contains several hundred short epigrams and poems, including works by Marbod of Rennes, Roger of Caen, Serlo of Wilton and Henry of Huntingdon, along with a number of longer works, including Alain of Lille's influential Anticlaudianus and De planctu naturae. An appendix presents the eighth-century riddles of Tatwine and Aldhelm.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eBernardi Morlanensis De contemptu mundi\u003cbr\u003e Godefridi Prioris epigrammata\u003cbr\u003e Epigrammata miscellanea\u003cbr\u003e Henrici Archidiaconi historiae liber undecimus\u003cbr\u003e Alexandri Neckam De vita monachorum\u003cbr\u003e Gualonis Britonis Invectio in monachos\u003cbr\u003e Versus Serlonis de filiis presbyterorum\u003cbr\u003e Anonymi versus de querimonia cleri\u003cbr\u003e Versus Hugonis Sotovaginae\u003cbr\u003e Anonymi versus de abbatibus mitris utentibus et deliciose viventibus\u003cbr\u003e Serlonis monachi poemata\u003cbr\u003e Reginaldi monachi poemata\u003cbr\u003e Alani Anglici Anticlaudianus\u003cbr\u003e Alani Liber de planctu naturae\u003cbr\u003e Appendix: Anglo-Latin aenigmata of the Saxon period\u003cbr\u003e Index.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: British \u0026amp; Irish history [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on British \u0026amp; Irish history\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22British%20\u0026amp;%20Irish%20history%20%5BHBJD1%5D%22\"\u003eHBJD1\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46266089668888,"sku":"9781108049085","price":43.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9781108049085i.jpg?v=1696746840","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/the-anglo-latin-satirical-poets-and-epigrammatists-of-the-twelfth-century-paperback-9781108049085","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
