Wood’s book is concerned with ‘Scots Chaucerians’ Robert Henryson and William Dunbar. He begins by dismissing Dr Agnes Mure Mackenzie’s repudiation of their debt to Chaucer as ‘not entirely motivated by literary considerations’ and observes that, without Chaucer’s ‘Troilus and Cressida’, Henryson could not have written the ‘Testament of Cresseid’. Biographical detail and poem extracts are given for both poets.
