Description
Briefly mentions Chaucer in a discussion about the literary influences on Milton. John Lane--who continued Chaucer's SqT--may have helped to incite Milton's interest in chivalry and tournaments. Malory is also a likely influence, although never named in Milton's work, which may be because his name did not carry the cultural cachet of Chaucer and Spenser, whom he does name.
