Description
Contends that "there is no clear, indisputable evidence" of a personal relationship between Chaucer and Thomas Hoccleve in the latter's "Regement of Princes." His praise of Chaucer in that poem is evocative but generally conventional, and there is "not a shred of evidence in non-literary sources."
