Wittenwiler's Ring and Colkelbie Sow: Two Comic-Didactic Works From the 15Th Century

Heinrich Wittenwiler's Ring , written in a Swiss dialect and presented in English translation for the first time in this 1956 volume, is a comic-didactic and religious allegory that documents late medieval views on many aspects of literature, history, law and religion. Besides his translation of Ring , Jones adds an exposition on the text as well as a translation of the Middle Scots poem Colkelbie Sow with a comparative analysis of the two works.
