Reviews
`For nearly 40 years Thomas Hoccleve toiled at the Privy Seal, a professional scribe stooping and staring `upon the sheepes skyn' [...] Langdell convincingly moves his rehabilitation forward with this thoughtful, wide-ranging and learned reassessment.' Jane Roberts, The Review of English Studies
`Langdell convincingly moves his rehabilitation forward with this thoughtful, wide-ranging and learned reassessment.' Jane Roberts, The Review of English Studies `The emphasis on Hoccleve's influence in the conclusion, while quickly spelled out here, is of great importance and will hopefully serve to inspire other scholars; in particular, using Hoccleve's religious identity to connect him with Lydgate-specifically to the Life of Our Lady-is a promising avenue of research that many others may want to pursue, and thank Langdell as they do.'
