'Maked na moore': Editing and Narrative

SAC 32 (2010): 365-73.

Description
Explores how the Manly-Rickert edition of CT "undoes its own arguments about textual history by noting its own textual history of doubt and contingency," suggesting that Manly and Rickert "tell stories" about the composition of CT and that the death of Rickert before completion of the work parallels Chaucer's own death before completion of CT.
