Acknowledgements

I would like to thank several people for making this book possible. Thank you to Prof Daniel Wakelin for helping me to shape this project and bring it to completion. I am also grateful to Prof Julia Boffey and Dr Jane Griffiths, and to my editors Dr Orietta Da Rold, Dr Holly James-Maddocks, Prof Pete Biller, and Caroline Palmer for their unstinting support.

Thank you to my fellow Oxford medievalists for the ongoing intellectual and literal nourishment. Further specific thanks to colleagues in Oxford and further afield: Prof Laura Ashe, Dr Tamara Atkin, Prof Mishtooni Bose, Prof Neil Cartlidge, Cavaliera Cristina Dondi, Dr Geri Della Rocca de Candal, Prof Mary C. Flannery, Prof Vincent Gillespie, Daryl Green, Dr Carrie Griffin, Prof Simon Horobin, Prof Heather ODonoghue, Dr Nick Perkins, Prof Adam Smyth, Dr Annie Sutherland, Dr Laura Varnam and Dr Mary Wellesley.

At Worcester College in Oxford, the Wilkinson Assistant Dean & Junior Research Fellowship and the Martin Senior Scholarship enabled me to embark on this research. I am also deeply grateful for the disability support I have received.

This research would not have been possible without access to collections of medieval manuscripts, something that is keenly missed at the time of writing. To the Bodleian Library staff, special thanks for hefting so many heavy manuscripts! Thank you to Colin Harris, Dr Matthew Holford and Dr Martin Kauffmann. I would like to express my gratitude to the following research collections for welcoming me: in Cambridge, the University Library, Gonville & Caius College Library, St Johns College Library, and the Wren Library at Trinity College; in London, the British Library, Lambeth Palace Library, and Grays Inn Library; in California, the Henry E. Huntington Library; in addition, Eton College Library; Exeter Cathedral Library; and Worcester Cathedral Library. Also, particular thanks to the Henry E. Huntington Library for awarding me the Gilbert & Ursula Farfel Fellowship in 2015.
