The Pearl A Middle English Poem A Modern Version in the Metre of the Original

1908002451Thomas Y. Crowell Publishers New York. 1908 The early 20th century decorative leather book is a translation that Jewett undertook a version of the complex Middle English poem The Pearl in the original meter and selected lyrics such as a "Nativity Song" adapted from the work of Jacopone da Todi. The "Pearl Poet" or the "Gawain Poet" is the name given to the author of Pearl an alliterative poem written in 14th-century Middle English known from a single surviving manuscript the British Library holding Cotton Nero A.x. This body of work includes some of the greatest poetry written in Middle English. The Pearl Poet remains unidentified. Some scholarship has argued to assign the poem to one John Massey a member of the landed gentry from Cheshire. This attribution of the poems of Cotton Nero A.x is not widely accepted however reflected in the ongoing use of the labels "Pearl Poet" or "Gawain Poet."
