Title
What Did Adam Pynkhurst (Not) Write?: A Reply to Dr. Horobin

Published
RES 61 (2010): 690-710.

Description
Argues that the context and argument of Horobin's refutation of Fletcher's earlier essay are deficient (see "The Criteria for Scribal Attribution: Dublin, Trinity College, MS 244, Some Early Copies of the Works of Geoffrey Chaucer, and the Canon of Adam Pynkhurst Manuscripts," SAC 31 [2007], no. 30, and "The Criteria for Scribal Attribution: Dublin, Trinity College MS 244 Reconsidered," SAC 33 [2009], no. 16). The question of the role of palaeography and historical linguistics in determining scribal attribution remains moot.
