| Opplysninger | Denn er Winthrop Wetherbees andre oversettelse av Architrenius; hans tidligere oversettelse ble utgitt av Cambridge University Press, 1994, bind 3 i serien Cambridge medieval classics.. - The Architrenius is school-poetry through and through, proudly assertive of its pedantry and the cumbersome stylistic virtuosity for which its author was renowned, but it is also a worldly poem, moving with disconcerting freedom between topical satire and visionary allegory, the lower depths of Parisian student life and the utopian peace of the ancient philosophers, the cottage and the court. With occasional brilliance it brings the resources of high Latin poetry into the secular world of the twelfth century, and marks a stage in the literary movement that would eventually produce the fully realized comic worlds of Jean de Meun, Boccaccio, and Chaucer.--
