- Description
- Focuses on the occupatio that addresses Emelye's ritual ablutions in the temple of Diana. Discusses the way Chaucer identifies different modes of seeing--all-inclusive panoramic vision vs. the privileged view of the voyeur--with the Knight's staging of his own narratorial power and the specific politics of chivalric culture.
