- Description
- Chaucer's Criseyde in TC and Malory's Elaine and Guenivere in Morte d'Arthur are "modern" in their struggles. Each author illuminates his "diogesis" by narrative use(s) of the heroine(s); both authors "counter reductive views" by providing suggestive names and associating the heroine(s) with suggestive colors.
