- Description
- Argues that George Gascoigne's reading of TC inspired aspects of his "Adventures of Master F. J." [or F. I.]. In particular, identifies parallels to the scene Troilus's fainting (TC 3.1092), the character of Criseyde, the "self-effacing pose" of Chaucer's narrator, and Pandarus's manipulations (echoed in Gascoigne's narrative perspective).
