Janet Hadley Williams is an Honorary Lecturer at the Centre for Early Modern Studies at the Australian National University. Her edition of 'Duncane Laideus' Testament' and other Comic Poems in Older Scots was published by The Scottish Text Society in 2016.

Hadley Williams's detailed knowledge of the period makes the circumstances in which the texts were produced clear and in doing so she reveals aspects of politics that have been largely ignored. The utility of this work extends well beyond the purely literary.
