Due to the anticity of the work, the names of most authors are lost in history. The appearance of the book was possible thanks to the titanic work of Bishop Percy. He dedicated a significant part of his life to collecting the results of the ancient minstrels like Hugh the Trumpeter, Henry Howman, Thomas Wylkyns, Thomas Pollard, Taillefer, William Turnbull, William Scot, and many others. Percy didn »t just recover, renew, and edit numerous poetic works; he also did a lot of research about the ballad writers, minstrels, and troubadours.
