Chaucer's 'Man of Law's Tale' 847: A Reconsideration
- Published
- Chaucer Review 22 (1988): 246-49.
- Description
- John C. Hirsh's proposed emendation of "wo man" to "woman" in MLT 847 is probably unwarranted. Consideration of manuscript evidence, as well as syntax and cultural context, render Hirsh's reading implausible.
