About the authors

active 14th century Dan Michel

Known almost entirely through a single surviving work, this 14th-century English writer left behind one of the best-known examples of prose in the Kentish dialect. His Ayenbite of Inwyt opens a rare window onto medieval religious writing and the history of English itself.

active 1279 d'Orléans Laurent

A 13th-century Dominican friar linked to the French royal court, this medieval writer is best known for Somme le Roi, a moral and religious guide that traveled widely in manuscript form. His work helped shape later devotional writing well beyond his own lifetime.
