The Dark Is Light Enough: The Layout of the Tale of Sir Thopas
- Published
- Myra Seaman, Eileen A. Joy, and Nicola Masciandaro, eds. Dark Chaucer: An Assortment (Brooklyn, N. Y.: Punctum Books, 2012), pp. 191-203.
- Description
- Suggests that the textual layout of Th is authorial in the Ellesmere, Hengwrt, Cambridge MS Gg.II.27, and Dd.IV.24 copies of Th. Because other manuscripts do not adhere to this layout, they exemplify how scribes interpret texts rather than transmit them faithfully. Includes a diplomatic edition of the layout of Th as found in Oxford, Christ Church, MS 152.
