The Shadow of Chaucer's Jews

Published

Description
PrT and SNT mirror each other but "with a telling difference." The two stand in relation to each other as Old Testament figura to New Testament fulfillment (the shadow and substance of the title). Ironically, in this figural scheme, PrT takes the place of the rejected term, the Jew.

Chaucer Subjects
Prioress and Her Tale.
Second Nun and Her Tale.
