- Description
- Reconsiders Laura Hibbard Loomis's method for gauging Chaucer's familiarity with the Auchinleck manuscript--a method based on collocations shared by Auchinleck and Th--arguing that the method does not prove his familiarity with Auchinleck, but does evince his knowledge of Oxford, Bodleian Library, MS Laud misc. 108, or something like it. Evidence from the records of the MED help to demonstrate the variety of Chaucer's poetic styles.
