Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
This is the last of the Society's diplomatic editions of Ancrene Riwle (the series began in 1944). The Riwle (also known as Ancrene Wisse) is a thirteenth-century guide for anchoresses which reached a much wider public in the Middle Ages. The diplomatic editions allow readers convenient access to its textual history. The new edition follows the editorial methods established by the series: the text of the MS is reproduced as it stands, without emendations. Scribal `errors' and significant variant readings from two of the most important other MSS are given in the Apparatus.
MoreLong description:
There is currently much interest in the `mouvance' of a medieval text: the way in which different manuscripts reflect its evolution to meet changing readers' needs. Ancrene Riwle (Ancrene Wisse) is ideally suited to such study. Although it began as a guide for anchoresses, composed in the thirteenth century, it addressed a wider audience, and served as a popular guide to spirituality down to the Reformation. The `Vernon' version, copied in the second half of the fourteenth century, is the last in the series of editions of individual manuscript versions to be published by EETS. The series began with the publication of the Latin text, edited by C. D'Evelyn (OS 216) in 1944, and the French text, edited by J. A. Herbert (OS 219). The first of the English texts to appear was the Nero MS, edited by M. Day (OS 225, 1952).
Scholars of the Ancrene Riwle will be grateful for Zettersten and Diensberg for this carefully executed volume and to the Early English Text Society for carrying the Ancrene Riwle project to completion
