- Description
- Eighteen articles by colleagues, friends, and former pupils honor Derek Brewer's retirement and serve as a tribute to his achievements in the study of medieval literature and especially of Chaucer. Responses to Chaucer and Chaucer's tradition treat Chaucer's life and work in the context of its time and Chaucer as a narrative poet in relation to traditions. The collection "aims to address topics of special interest within the field of Chaucer's influence on subsequent writers until the end of the seventeenth century." For eighteen essays that pertain to Chaucer, search for Chaucer Traditions under Alternative Title.
