This new study argues that they elaborated a 'self-publishing pose' with the aim of regaining their audiences' confidence in the face of the compromised social, physical, and material conditions they inhabited. Dr. Critten shows that while the strategies of self-presentation that these authors develop draw on trends in contemporary literature and book history (such as the proliferation of the 'go, litel bok' motif and the increasing popularity of the single-author codex), their approach to writing differs fundamentally from that pursued by their immediate predecessors, Chaucer and Gower, and by their most prominent peer, Lydgate. Rather, in their unusual insistence on their co-identity with their manuscripts, they demonstrate a new awareness of the socially instrumental potential of Middle English writing--back cover. 600 10 $a Hoccleve, Thomas, $d 1370?-1450 $x Criticism and interpretation. 600 10 $a Kempe, Margery, $d approximately 1373- $x Criticism and interpretation. 600 10 $a Audelay, John, $d active 1426 $x Criticism and interpretation. 600 00 $a Charles, $c d'OrleÌans, $d 1394-1465 $x Criticism and interpretation. 600 17 $a Audelay, John, $d active 1426. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01805738 600 07 $a Charles, $c d'OrleÌans, $d 1394-1465. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00012388 600 17 $a Hoccleve, Thomas, $d 1370?-1450? $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00099039 600 17 $a Kempe, Margery, $d approximately 1373- $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01828287 650 0 $a English literature $y Middle English, 1100-1500 $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Authorship $x History $y To 1500. 650 0 $a Manuscripts, English (Middle) $x History. 650 0 $a Rhetoric, Medieval. 650 7 $a Authorship. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00822442 650 7 $a English literature $x Middle English. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01710961 650 7 $a Manuscripts, English (Middle) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01008329 650 7 $a Rhetoric, Medieval. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01096987 648 7 $a To 1500 $2 fast 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191122021455.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=73849876462211E9A3F20F6897128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
