Abstract
This paper looks at the background against which Thomas Hoccleve's Remonstrance against Oldcastle was written. It draws on unprinted material from British Library MS Harley 431 to demonstrate close links between the Office of the Privy Seal, where Hoccleve was employed, and Sir John Oldcastle and his wife. A re-examination of the Remonstrance, known as a “furiously orthodox” poem, suggests the possibility of ironical readings at some points.
