- Description
- Examines the "ideological markers" that indicate the various "languages" of MLT, arguing that they cannot be resolved into unity by recourse to a supposed personality of the teller.
- MLT comprises several literary languages, and unlike the post-medieval novels examined by Mikhael Bakhtin, it does not include social or professional languages.
- Alternative Title
- Bakhtin and Medieval Voices.
- Chaucer Subjects
- Man of Law and His Tale.
