The Early English Versions of the Gesta Romanorum is a book written by Sidney J. H. Herrtage. It is a scholarly work that focuses on the Gesta Romanorum, a medieval collection of moral tales and anecdotes that were popular in Europe during the Middle Ages. Specifically, the book examines the early English translations of the Gesta Romanorum, which were produced between the 14th and 16th centuries. The book begins with an introduction that provides historical context for the Gesta Romanorum and its various translations. It then goes on to present the texts of three early English versions of the Gesta Romanorum, along with detailed notes and commentary on each. Throughout the book, Herrtage provides insights into the literary and cultural significance of the Gesta Romanorum and its translations. He also discusses the sources and influences that shaped the tales, as well as the ways in which they were adapted and transformed in different cultural contexts. Overall, The Early English Versions of the Gesta Romanorum is a valuable resource for scholars and students of medieval literature, as well as anyone interested in the history of storytelling and moral education in the Middle Ages.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
