This volume makes available Anthony Munday’s translation from the French of the Iberian romance, The First Part of Palmerin of England, one of the most widely read and controversial literary texts in sixteenth-century Europe. It will be the first modern edition of this early modern best-seller, and will examine the importance of Munday as one of Elizabethan England’s most prominent literary translators, the significant popularity and contested status of the Palmerin romance cycle, and the text’s engagement with political, religious, and cultural identities and interactions.
