John Skelton, The Bouge of Court
View through CrossRef
Abstract
John Skelton’s writings, which bridge the periods conventionally classified as ‘medieval’ and ‘Renaissance’, demonstrate the continued life of the poetic dream vision well over a century after Chaucer’s influential experiments with the form. Skelton had read Chaucer carefully, but also draws into his own writing the fruits of the wide scholarly reading which qualified him in the last years of the fifteenth century for a post as tutor to the future Henry VIII.
