Arfin considers WBT as a "demande," written toward the end of the composition of CT as Chaucer's comment on "the collection as a whole" or on the "nature of literature in general" in his work-in-progress.
In discussing ethics and choice, the article makes passing references to the Pardoner, MLT, FranT, ParsT, and Ret.
