N2  - "[...], Davidson's and Oosterwijk's volume [...] offers a deeply researched, wide-ranging, and profoundly valuable overview of major Anglo-French contributions to the broader danse macabre tradition."  - Elizaveta Strakhov, University of Marquette, USA in Speculum, 2023.    "This book combines a scholarly edition of Lydgate's Dance of Death and the French Danse Macabre poem, and discusses their wider context and historical circumstances of their creation, authorship and visualisation."
