Description
Tabulates, compares, and analyzes the "collation results" of understudied sections of Wynkyn de Worde's edition of CT and Caxton's second edition, comparing them with variants in manuscripts, and arguing that while De Worde's editorial practice was not modern, he did shape the text of the CT for his audience and sought to complete the work Caxton began.
