Description
Computer studies of Chaucer's vocabulary can teach the modern philologist much about Chaucer's "logosphere" that earlier concordances or historical dictionaries could never do. Such proposed computerized projects would include the comparative analysis of Chaucer's word-formation processes with Gower's and with Dryden's adaptations.
