Description
Dor compares ABC with its source, revealing that Chaucer's translation is a rewriting that achieves intense dramatic power. Transformations of the figure of Mary ,some shifts in the poem's tone, and ironical remarks invite us to reconsider the poem's significance and to revise some definitions in the "Middle English Dictionary." Includes a French translation of ABC.
In French.
