Reviews

This work is a challenging examination of eight poets associated with royal courts, English and Scottish, between 1485 and 1528. Its concern is the way in which these writers engage with authority-royal, political and patronal, cultural, literary, and generic - and how those engagements shape the poetic I. --Renaissance Society of America This is a careful study that attempts to set the literary construction of late medieval Scottish and English court poetry in the context of European humanism. --Parergon - Journal of the Australian and New Zealand Association for Medieval and Early Modern Studies
