Modern annotations and a glossary accompany the satire, parody, lyricism, and allegory featured in this new selection of poems by John Skelton, who lived from approximately 1464 to 1529. England's first great modern poet, Skelton's work still has the power to surprise and shock with its formal inventiveness and its indictments of church, scholars, and state.
