The aim is to combine, in one compact work, a biography of a medieval author with all the information needed for further research. The series is divided into two sub-series. The first, edited by M.C. Seymour, focuses on EnglishWriters of the Late Middle Ages and the second, edited by Patrick Geary, deals with Historical and Religious Writers of the Latin West. William Caxton was the first English printer and publisher of printed books. He translated many books into English and by the prologues and epilogues added to many of his printed works he helped to establish literary tastes and fashions at the end of the medieval period. The life of Reginald Peacock, bishop, heretic and author, reflects the many controversies of 15th-century England. Drawing on many contemporary sources and based on fresh research. Wendy Scase offers a new interpretation of an enigmatic writer. Douglas Gray traces the lives of the two poets Robert Henryson and William Dunbar. Among the several distinguished poets of late-medieval Scotland. Henryson stands out for his humanity, learned wit and imaginitive power; while Dunbar was one of the most spectacular, flamboyant and versatile Scottish poets of the Middle Ages. This study gives an account of the little that is known of their lives and extensively details both their works and later scholarship. John Capgrave (1393-1464) was an Augustinian friar, Cambridge theologian, hagiographer and chronicler who became Prior Provincial of his order. His life, presented here in the light of fresh research and with full documentation, illuminates the importance of the order in the troubled times of mid 15th-century England. 410 0$aAuthors of the Middle Ages ;$v3, nos. 7-11. 606 $aEnglish literature$yMiddle English, 1100-1500$xHistory and criticism 606 $aAuthors, English$yMiddle English, 1100-1500$vBiography 615 0$aEnglish literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aAuthors, English 676 $a820.9001 700 $aBlake$b N.F.$0131319 702 $aGray$b Douglas 702 $aSeymour$b M.C. 801 0$bFlBoTFG 801 1$bFlBoTFG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910154612403321 996 $aAuthors of the Middle Ages, Volume III, Nos 7?11$92178191 997 $aUNINA
