Constructing a Voice for Chaucer's Second Nun: Martyrdom as Institutional Discourse
- Published
- AEstel 3 (1995): 81-95.
- Description
- The Second Nun's voice is undefined by Chaucer, yet it is intriguing since it probes the nature of "agency, voice, and reappropriation." The voice of the Nun becomes more clear as her character develops, and SNT "becomes a product of the voice."
