Focuses on "their decision to allow Criseyde to leave Troy" in TC 4.1128-1701 as evidence that the poem presents "their complex personalities and behavior patterns" in the "first psychological novel in the English language" and a depiction rather than an analysis of emotions.

Focuses on characterization of the pilgrims, especially the Host, and their professional antagonisms, personal motives, and self-revelation. Categorizes the pilgrims by "three stages of dramatic development or three techniques of characterization: simple suiting of tale and teller; suiting of tale and teller, "plus an externally motivated dramatic situation"; and suiting of tale and teller, external dramatic motive, plus "internally motivated and extended self-revelation of which the teller is not fully aware."
