- Review
- The title refers to a cluster of essays in this issue of "Speculum," devoted to re-assessing the identification of Adam Pinkhurst as "Adam Scriveyn," by Linne Mooney in 2004. Kerby-Fulton provides a brief introduction, and hers is the first essay in the cluster. Because Mooney's still-controversial essay began with an earlier study by A. I. Doyle and Malcolm Parkes of multiple scribal hands in a manuscript of the "Confessio Amantis," one of whom (Doyle and Parkes' "Scribe B") Mooney judged to be Pinkhurst, all of the essays in the cluster touch upon scribes copying Gower's work to one degree or another, although the Gower portion of these essays receives very little attention.
