Title
The Boethian Reader of Troilus and Criseyde

Published
Chaucer Review 33: 230-51, 1999.

Description
Knowing Boethian philosophy (as Chaucer intended his audience to do) enables the reader of TC to gain a double perspective, both inside and outside the temporal limits of the text. This position is analogous to God's position and allows one to experience the difference between "human reason and divine intelligence" and "human time and the divine apprehension of eternity."

Chaucer Subjects
Troilus and Criseyde.
