- Description
- Strohm calls for renewed sensitivity to historical particularity in the study of literature, especially Chaucer. Such study must acknowledge the limits of modernist empiricist assumptions and maintain deep respect for the past and its mutually constitutive relations with the present. Includes comments on the development of the New Chaucer Society.
