Description
Shakif-Ghaly scrutinizes "Yvain" and TC for medieval "dispositio" through Genettian narratology and for "manifestatio" through Anglo-American theory. Despite differences between the texts, such an analysis brings out tensions of medieval authors and suggests the development of a "medieval narratology."

Chaucer Subjects
Troilus and Criseyde.
