{"product_id":"gavin-douglas-the-palyce-of-honour","title":"Gavin Douglas, The Palyce of Honour","description":"\u003cp\u003eAt the end of the fifteenth century, Gavin Douglas devised his ambitious dream vision \u003ci\u003eThe Palyce of Honour\u003c\/i\u003e in part to signal a new scope to Scottish literary culture. While deeply versed in Chaucer's writings, Douglas identified Ovid's \u003ci\u003eMetamorphoses\u003c\/i\u003e as a particularly timely model in the light of contemporary humanist scholarship. For all its comedy, \u003ci\u003eThe Palyce of Honour\u003c\/i\u003e stands as a reminder to James IV of Scotland that poetry casts a powerful light upon the arts of rule. A new edition of David Parkinson’s 1992 book \u003cem\u003eThe Palis of Honoure.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMedieval Institute Publications at Western Michigan University publishes the \u003cstrong\u003eTEAMS Middle English Texts\u003c\/strong\u003e series, which is designed to make available texts that occupy an important place in the literary and cultural canon but have not been readily obtainable in student editions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe focus of Middle English Texts is on Middle English literature adjacent to such major authors as Chaucer or Malory.
