Title
Transcript Error and the Text of Troilus

Published
Studies in the Age of Chaucer 13 (1991): 99-119.

Description
Furnivall's printed transcriptions of TC manuscripts have created a legacy of errors, especially in editions based on Corpus Christi College, Cambridge, 61 (Cp). Hewett-Smith identifies errors in Robinson's edition and exemplifies the transmission of error into other editions, particularly the first printing of The Riverside Chaucer.
