Title
Sixty-Four Years of Polish Academic Writing on Geoffrey Chaucer

Published
Chaucer Review 34: 236-41, 1999.

Description
Polish academic writing on Chaucer follows a political pattern. Retreating from politically charged topics, students and professors have concentrated on linguistics topics, such as morphology, syntax, semantics, and loanwords. Most "literary" subjects have stressed a strong anti-imperialist or anticapitalist bent. American students studying in Poland have chosen religion and philosophy, poetics, gender, and love over language.
