Chaucer's Allergy
- Published
- Poetica: An International Journal of Linguistic Literary Studies 73 (2010): 55-65.
- Description
- Argues that Chaucer is "constitutionally sensitive" to intellectual realism, preferring sensory experientialism instead. In BD, as in HF and PF, inconclusiveness and tentativeness defer rather than console and encourage a "broader mundane perspective" than is traditional in the dream vision genre.
