Chaucer and Capgrave's 'Life of St. Katherine'
- Published
- American Benedictine Review 33 (1982): 276-91.
- Description
- The innovative material in the first three books of Capgrave's "Life" is indebted to the fifteenth century's interest in Chaucer's "elevated" and pious passages, especially those in TC. Stylistically, however, Capgrave's attempt to emulate his master largely fails.
