The Piers Plowman tradition is made up of about 14 different poetic and prose works from about the time of John Ball (died 1381) and the Peasants Revolt of 1381 through the reign of Elizabeth I and beyond. All the works feature one or more characters, typically Piers, from William Langland's poem Piers Plowman. (A much larger number of texts, with less obvious connection to Piers Plowman, may also be considered part of the tradition.) Because the Plowman appears in the General Prologue to The Canterbury Tales by Geoffrey Chaucer but does not have his own tale (one of seven such characters), plowman tales are sometimes used as additions to The Canterbury Tales, or otherwise conflated or associated with Chaucer.

  • La Tradition de Pierre le laboureur est un ensemble d'environ 14 textes en prose et en vers, écrits entre l'époque de John Ball (mort en 1381) ou de la Révolte des paysans de 1381 et le règne d'Élisabeth Ire (1558-1603) et même au-delà. Tous ces ouvrages mettent en scène un ou plusieurs personnages, le plus typique étant Piers du poème Piers le laboureur de William Langland. Un plus grand nombre de textes, ayant un lien moins évident avec Pierre le laboureur, peuvent aussi être considérés comme faisant partie de la tradition. Ces textes ont comme principe de se faire l'écho de manière satirique des mécontentements économiques, sociaux, politiques, et religieux, et de s'intéresser aux décisions politiques et à la relation entre les gens du peuple et le roi. À cet égard, ils s'apparentent à des ouvrages tels que The Song of the Husbandman (vers 1340), Wynnere and Wastoure (vers 1353) et The Parlement of the Thre Ages (1375 - 1400). La tradition de Pierre le laboureur a donc contribué à l'émergence de la « sphère publique » pré-moderne. La plupart de ces ouvrages sont anonymes ; beaucoup sont pseudépigraphes par volonté de l'auteur ou du fait d'une attribution tardive erronée. La distinction entre fiction et histoire y est souvent floue. (fr)

Because the Plowman appears in the General Prologue to The Canterbury Tales by Geoffrey Chaucer but does not have his own tale (one of seven such characters), plowman tales are sometimes used as additions to The Canterbury Tales, or otherwise conflated or associated with Chaucer. As a rule, they satirically reflect economic, social, political, and religious grievances, and are concerned with political decisions and the relation between commoners and king. In these respects they resemble works such as Poem on the Evil Times of Edward II (1321–27), The Song of the Husbandman (c. 1340), Wynnere and Wastoure (c. 1353), and The Parlement of the Three Ages (c. 1375–1400). The Piers Plowman tradition therefore contributed to an emerging early modern "public sphere". Most of the works of the tradition are anonymous; many are pseudepigraphic by authorial design or later misattribution. The distinction between fiction and history in them is often blurred. (en)
