- Description
- Proposes that Chaucer probably started with a provisional notion of the overall order of CT, which he experimented with, adjusted, and had not completely sorted out before he died. The scribes copied the text in stints as the best way to adapt Chaucer's progress in producing the poem, which may indicate a close working relation between Chaucer and his scribes.
