The Raven and the Writing Desk: The Theoretical Limits of Patristic Criticism
- Published
- Chaucer Review 14 (1980): 260-77.
- Description
- A theoretical objection to patristic criticism is that it is guilty of question-begging because it assumes that a work is intended to promote "caritas." It is not the assumption of coherence that produces the fallacy but the assumption of a particular kind of coherence.
