The Old English material has been substantially revised and expanded, including new translations by Roy Liuzza of Deor, Wulf and Eadwacer, and The Battle of Brunanburh. A selection from Adrienne Williams Boyarin's new translation of The Miracles of the Virgin will be included, along with Sian Echard's translation of selections from Y Gododdin. Matthieu Boyd's translation of the first two branches of the Mabinogi is also new to this edition, together with several Early Irish lyrics.

The Love and Marriage Contexts section has been expanded to include additional material by Christine de Pizan and excerpts from Holy Maidenhood, and the Religious and Spiritual Life Contexts section now includes excerpts from Wycliffite writings. The selection of material by Sir Thomas Malory has also been substantially revised and expanded.
