Against Women Unconstant: The Case for Chaucer's Authorship

Published
Modern Philology 80 (1982): 161-64.

Description
A heretofore overlooked list of internal evidence for Chaucer's authorship of Wom Unc concerns the source of the mirror image--the latter used by Chaucer in his Bo. Since Chaucer's lady is described in terms that smack of Boethius's Fortune, the author's dependence upon Boethius brings Wom Unc very close to his own translation.
