内容説明
Thomas Hoccleve was a scribe in royal service from ca. 1386 to 1426, as well as a 'Chaucerian' poet who has attracted much interest, especially for his autobiographical poems. This facsimile reproduces three manuscripts containing all of his known poetry except his Regiment of Princes [of which no autograph copy survives]. It provides a rare opportunity to see how a medieval English poet presented his own work in copies which he made himself, meticulously spelled and metred. Although these manuscripts have attracted much scholarly attention, only a few pages have been previously reproduced in published studies. The Introduction includes the first full description of the contents and structure of the three volumes, with discussions of the author's handwriting, use of abbreviations and punctuations based on advances in palaeographical study and historical knowledge of Hoccleve's context.
