Title
Richard Pynson's 1526 Edition of 'The Parliament of Fowls'

Published
Poetica (Tokyo) 49 (1998): 49-62.

Description
Pynson's (1526?) edition of PF was the first printed version of the poem to establish the text from multiple sources.
The copy text seems to have been of the "beta" sub-group B manuscripts, closest to Bodleian Library MS Bodley 638, and perhaps corrected against a manuscript that underlies the later (1530) edition supervised by Robert Copland for Wynken de Worde.
