The Transcription of the 'Clerk's Tale' in MS HM140: Interpreting Textual Effects

Published
Studies in Bibliography 47 (1994): 89-103.

Description
Three important omissions (including omission of ClP) strip the HM140 text of ClT of its "Canterbury" context. Whether these were deliberate excisions or a consequence of problems in production cannot be demonstrated conclusively.
