- Description
- Studies how Chaucer's ClT may have been affected by the Italian textual tradition. The first part of the book concentrates on the Italian texts, particularly the Manelli codex of Boccaccio, "Decameron" X.10. The second part considers how the Hengwrt and Ellesmere manuscripts present ClT, its envoy, and WBP. Appendices compile the glosses from Manelli, Hengwrt, and Ellesmere.
