Published
Lucia Boldrini, ed. Medieval Joyce (Amsterdam: Rodopi, 2002), pp. 143-63.

Description
Joyce was re-reading CT while revising Ulysses. Chaucerian influence extends beyond allusion to parallels of linguistic conception, encyclopedic reference, and form. The works share elements of tone, a sense of place among the great works of literature, a summary approach to contemporary genres, and a vision for the future of literature.
