William Thynne's Printing of the 'Squire's Tale': Manuscripts and Printer's Copy

Published
Studies in Bibliography 39 (1986): 125-32.

Description
William Thynne used manuscripts in addition to printed texts for his edition of SqT. Evidence suggests at least two manuscripts very similar to extant texts, a fact that reinforces Thynne's claim to being "editor" as well as "printer" of CT.
