- Description
- Examines Chaucer's correlation of translation and love in TC, yoking aesthetics and ethics and exploring the embedded ideas of order and gender; considers the sexuality evident in discussions of translation by Boethius, Alain de Lille, and Dante; and reads TC as an exposition of the fundamental impossibilities both of reading objectively and of understanding the desires of others.
