Charlotte Brewer
Charlotte Brewer (born 1956) is professor of English language and literature at Hertford College, Oxford. Before joining Hertford in 1990, she was a thesis fellow at All Souls College, Oxford. She has also taught at the University of Leeds and Lady Margaret Hall, Oxford. Her teaching covers Old and Middle English literature and the history of the English language.
Brewer began her research career as a medievalist, with publications on the late Middle English poem ''Piers Plowman'' and its textual and editing history. The poet appears to have produced several versions of ''Piers Plowman'' at different times. Brewer's book ''Piers Plowman: the Z version'' ()(edited with A.G. Rigg, Toronto 1983) advanced the view that a disregarded manuscript in Oxford's Bodley Library (Bodley 851) might be an early, or even first, iteration of the poem rather than a conflation of two other versions. In a later book, ''Piers Plowman: the Evolution of the Poem'' (Cambridge University Press, 1996; reprinted 2006)(), Brewer looked at how editors producing single printed texts of the poem over the last five centuries assessed the evidence of the poet's original intent from the numerous and lexically varied scribal manuscripts available for scholarly interpretation.
Brewer later shifted her research focus to the ''Oxford English Dictionary'' (''OED''). Brewer's recent research interest has attempted to understand how the ''OED'' has chosen quotations. Her 2007 book ''Treasure House of the Language: the Living OED'' covered the history of the second Supplement to the OED. In 2009, Brewer held a Leverhulme Research Fellowship to explore the ''OEDs treatment of female-authored quotation sources of the eighteenth century. She is married to the environmental writer Chris Goodall and has three daughters.
