It is a religious allegory that follows the dream of a man named Will, who goes on a journey to find the true meaning of life. Along the way, he encounters various characters, including Piers Plowman, who represents the ideal Christian life. The book also includes three additional texts: Vita de Dowel, Dobet, et Dobest, which explores the virtues of charity, good deeds, and best practice; and Richard the Redeles, which is a satirical poem about a corrupt priest.

The first of its kind in Piers Plowman studies, this edition aims to establish the archetypal text of the B-version of the poem, the ancestor of all extant manuscripts. The editors claim that this can be determined with certainty by examining the relationship between the best copies of the alpha and beta families of the B-version stemma.

"Cesseth!' seide the Kyng, " I suffre yow no lenger. Ye shul saughtne, forsothe, and serve me bothe. Kis hire, ' quod the Kyng, "Conscience, I hote!' "Nay, by Crist!' quod Conscience," congeye me rather! But Reson rede me therto, rather wol I deye

William Langland's 14th-century poem Piers Plowman is a disturbing and often humorous commentary on corruption and greed that remains meaningful today. This book is a new verse translation of Piers from Middle English which preserves the energy, imagery and intent of the original, and retains its alliterative style.

This is a new translation into contemporary English of one of the greatest poems of the English Middle Ages. Piers Plowman remains of enduring interest for its vivid picture of the whole life of medieval society, for its deeply imaginative religious vision, and for its passionate concern to see justice and truth prevail in our world.A. V. C. Schmidt's translation of the B-text is provided with an Introduction and extensive Notes which place the work in its contemporary setting and offer a full interpretative commentary on the poem.

Since the new edition involves a significant reworking of the previous edition and justifies library copy replacement, a hardback library edition will be available for a limited period.
