- Description
- Caie argues that modern editions of medieval texts ought to be accompanied by the glosses that accompany them in the manuscripts. He discusses Chaucer's glosses to CT, as well as his use of the humility topos. The glosses to CT may be Chaucer's own, and electronic editions can make them readily available.
