The Clerk's Tale as Parable
- Published
- Parergon 8 (1974): 12-19.
- Description
- One should not apply a naturalistic test to ClT, which displays the traditional characteristics of the parable--an illustrative story directed to a single point. The point here is that Griselda is true to God, which is a sufficient principle of life for all persons.
