"Finch's translations will add much to the pleasure and value of teaching and learning late medieval English history."--Robert Brentano, author of "Two Churches" "Casey Finch has found an idiom in which these poems can speak Modern English, and in doing so can convey the most elusive and complex effects of the originals. . . .
