(24 months)
We propose to continue the development of the /Piers Plowman Electronic Archive/, specifically to complete and publish our edition of the archetypal text (the putative lost manuscript from which all extant witnesses have descended), to continue development of the critical edition of the *B* version of /Piers Plowman/, and to prepare further documentary and color facsimile editions of the remaining *A* and C manuscripts. The latter will serve as the bases for the archetypal and critical editions of the *A* and *C* versions. |
