- Published
- Essays in Medieval Studies 8: 59-66, 1991.
- Description
- Explores Chaucer's uses of the word "gloss" to argue that he followed the model of the Roman de la Rose and included glosses in his own texts-marginal glosses at times, but also glosses incorporated into his texts to guide interpretation. Draws examples from a variety of Chaucer's works.
