Rastall and Taylor contribute to the continuing efforts to move away from romanticized images of the Middle Ages peddled by modern myth. In doing so they reveal just how little we concretely know about medieval minstrelsy, but cement its study as a fascinating window through which we can gain a deeper understanding of the people and culture of late medieval England. * TIMES LITERARY SUPPLEMENT * Minstrels and Minstrelsy is testament to Rastall's lifelong dedication to the study of this topic. Rastall and Taylor have gathered and presented a wealth of evidence with skill and nuance, and have reached honest conclusions. This book greatly increases our understanding of the day-to-day lives of minstrels. * EARLY MUSIC *
