These texts treat the grammar, lexis, and orthography of French as well as compiling a selection of entertaining dialogues that model the language in action. Together, they paint a vivid picture of the kinds of French that English learners might desire to wield and of the high levels of fluency that they could achieve. Critten's comprehensive introduction discusses his materials' relevance both for histories of language education and for recent reassessments of the longevity of French in medieval England. His pairing of first-time modern-English translations with facing-page original text makes these fascinating works newly available for a twenty-first-century audience. 517 $aFrench Lessons in Late-Medieval England 606 $aEducation$xHistory 606 $aHistory of education$2bicssc 608 $aElectronic books. 610 $aHistory of education 615 0$aEducation$xHistory. 615 7$aHistory of education. 676 $a370.9 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910637795403321 996 $aFrench Lessons in Late-Medieval England$93035696 997 $aUNINA
