Bibliography for Lollard Studies: Primary Sources

This bibliography of primary sources embraces all fields relevant to Lollard studies, broadly defined. It is meant to include texts relevant to the literary, historical, cultural, and religious milieu of Lollardy as well as those specifically by and about Lollard writers--and so, it is also a good place to start for work on later medieval religious culture in England at large. Inclusion on this list, therefore, does not necessarily mean that a text is Lollard.

This list is lightly annotated. The brief summaries which are regularly included in the "Recent Publications" section of "Lollard Society Newsletter" will be appended to new entries as they appear. For more help, Pitard, "A Selected Bibliography for Lollard Studies" (listed below under "Bibliographies and Indices") gives brief summaries of areas of relevant scholarship.

Users should note that despite many of the titles, few scholars today believe that any extant English text can be ascribed to Wyclif's hand, including the Bible translation. There are Middle English translations of some of his Latin works, but no-one knows for sure who did these. Virtually all Lollard texts remain anonymous.

There are five sections: Bibliographies and Indices; Ecclesiastical and State Records; Religious and Devotional Texts; The Works of John Wyclif; and Hussite Texts, including the Works of Jan Hus. Dissertations and theses are included under the appropriate category. Manuscripts are not included; for these, see Severs and Hartung (below, under Bibliographies and Indices), with the necessary addendum to this list provided by Hudson, "Additions and Modifications" (also listed under Bibliographies).

Also see our bibliography of Secondary Sources. Since these bibliographies are meant to be complete listings of texts and studies relevant to Lollardy, please let us know of any new references which should be included.

Allowed to flourish relatively unmolested for decades, the Coventry Lollards came under close episcopal scrutiny in 1511 and 1512 when Geoffrey Blyth, bishop of Coventry and Lichfield, began a concerted effort to uncover and eradicate their community. This volume presents a remarkable record of the testimony compiled during Blyth’s crackdown, along with all other surviving evidence for heretical activities in Coventry. The documents, offered here both in their original languages of Latin and Middle English and in modern English translation, give new insights into the nature of religious dissent in the years just prior to the first stirrings of the English Reformation.]

The Wycliffite Bible: The most recent edition of the Wycliffite Bible is being edited by Conrad Lindberg. The Early Version (EV) is complete in 8 volumes, edited from Bodley 959 and Christ Church 145. He is editing the Later Version (LV) as it appears in Bodley 277. Lindberg has also edited the books of Baruch and Judges, and the prefatory Epistles of Jerome, from a collation of all known manuscripts. Forshall and Madden's 1850 edition was a collation of all manuscripts known at the time (which include about 75% of those which are known today). The only full edition of the General Prologue appears in Forshall and Madden; the other, later editions are only excerpts. I list the various editions here in the order of their original publication, with facsimiles and websites last. Despite historical ascriptions to specific individuals, including Wyclif himself, most scholars today agree that the translation remains anonymous (though Lindberg is an exception to this), and must have been done by multiple translators; on this see Anne Hudson, The Premature Reformation, 242.

[Following his 8-volume edition of the EV, these are the first two (out of a projected four) volumes of Lindberg's edition of the LV, based on Bodley 277 and collated with Forshall and Madden's 1850 edition.  Lindberg picks Bodley 277 as his base text because, as he argues, the unique mix of largely LV text with some relict EV forms "unites features of all the previous stages into an authoritative whole worthy of the originator."]

THE WORKS OF JOHN WYCLIF

While various chroniclers record that Wyclif preached in English, and various works of his are translated during the period, this bibliography assumes that there are no surviving Middle English texts which we can confidently ascribe to his hand. This is not a listing of all his works, but of later printed editions. For other indices see Severs 2.519-521, and Thomson, Latin Writings (listed above in "Bibliographies and Indices"). The texts published by the Wyclif Society between 1883 and 1922 were republished by Johnson Reprints Corp., New York, in 1966. I list modern translations after the editions of the Latin works.

Not the complete text, but the framework is there.]
