"Penguin Classics have built their reputation as one of the largest and most successful
modern imprints for 'classic' texts on the notion of 'the general reader'. Focusing
on the medieval French texts published between c.1956 and 2000, the author demonstrates
that, rather than Penguin's frequently cited 'general reader', a more academic market
may have contributed to ensuring the success of these titles"
