The Manciple's 'Cosyn' to the Dede'
- Published
- Chaucer Review 25 (1991): 343-51.
- Description
- ManT is concerned with the method by which a story is told. Emphasis on the "gods' role in human marriage" restores the relationship between word and deed, a relationship important to the narrator of CT. Chaucer's numerous voices can be heard as "ironic reflections" on this central theme.
