(John Shirley's importance as a scribe of late fourteenth ...)
John Shirley's importance as a scribe of late fourteenth and early fifteenth-century vernacular literature (in particular the works of Chaucer and Lydgate) has been well documented. In this survey, the author makes a thorough examination of all extant documents relating to Shirley's life and scrutinizes the physical characteristics of his manuscripts. The book concludes that there is no evidence to suggest that Shirley acted as a bookseller, but plenty to indicate that he lent his books extensively.

The Mirror comprises a prologue and sixty sermons which were translated into Middle English in the late 14th century from a 13th-century Anglo-Norman sermon cycle by Robert de Gretham called the Miroir . This volume presents the Middle English text facing the original verse cycle. Both are followed by an extensive commentary and preceded by a full introductory discussion of the texts, including their style, script, authorship and transmission as well as issues raised by medieval translation. Includes a glossary.
