Anne of Bohemia and the Making of Chaucer
- Published
- Studies in the Age of Chaucer 19 (1997): 95-119.
- Description
- Reconsiders what role Anne may have had as a patron of Chaucer, examining her literary interests and political career and assessing the relation between these and the depiction of Alceste in LGWP. From Lydgate forward, the construction of Chaucer as "masculinized" master poet has obscured the possibility that Anne had an impact on Chaucer's career.
