Synopsis

This volume begins in a general examination of the Christian and scriptural tradition in which the great medieval poet conceived his own artistic activity. It looks at the practices of scriptural interpretation and techniques of marginal glossing familiar to Chaucer. It scrutinizes his use of scripture and its glosses in Canterbury Tales and The House of Fame.
