In drawing its conclusions about the downfalls of powerful men and women, Lydgate's poem operates within the popular medieval genre of 'advice to princes' literature. This book locates Lydgate's work within its contexts, exploring the nature of his relationship with the uneasy Lancastrian dynasty during the minority of Henry VI, as well as his response to contemporary conflicts between ecclesiastical and secular authority. In particular, this book closely analyses Lydgate's manipulations of his French source text, allowing readers to see in detail for the first time what it is that Lydgate was setting out to achieve. Finally, the book identifies the readership of Lydgate's poem in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, discussing its influence on the evolution of narrative tragedy in English.
The Fall of Princes is a collection of nearly 500 tragic narratives, and is the masterwork of John Lydgate, the most admired English poet of the fifteenth century. Previous discussions of the poem have been cursory; Mortimer here examines in detail Lydgate's manipulations of his source materials, the poet's relationship to his political context, and his importance in the evolution of tragic writing in England.
