Sow-and-Bagpipe Imagery in the Miller's Portrait.
- Published
- Review of English Studies 18 (1967): 287-90.
- Description
- Identifies several medieval visual images of a sow playing bagpipes and suggests that the iconography underlies the reference to bagpipes and the two references to a female pig in the GP description of the Miller, helping to characterize him as coarse and over-indulgent.
