Chaucer's Knight and His Tale
- Published
- Critical Review 22 (1980): 56-64.
- Description
- Characterizes the Knight as an "enlightened pragmatist" and interprets various details and stylistic devices of KnT (including "occupatio" and various kinds of opposition) as evidence that the teller is a man who seeks to affirm "ordering principles" but who is also "open to a range of unruly evidence" (64).
