Description
Rather than consider the forests and woods in Chaucer's work symbolically, offers an eco-materialist reading of Chaucer's work as Clerk of the King and as forester of North Petherton. Argues that these positions inform Chaucer's settings and descriptions of woods and land-use in his literary works.
