The Truth about 'Vache'

Published
Chaucer Review 11 (1977): 334-37.

Description
David E. Lampe's thesis that the word "Vache" in "Truth," 22, is an iconographic pun is falsely reasoned on several accounts, the most glaring of which is that "vacca" has several evil connotations in addition to the favorable "worldly renunciation" cited by Lampe.
