- Description
- Interrogates Chaucer's diminishment or elimination of Scottish, Irish, and especially Welsh aspects of his narrative materials in WBT, FranT, and MLT, arguing that he associated the Celtic fairy world with death, as it is also associated in "Sir Orfeo." Also comments on Chaucer's possible contacts with Celtic people and urges postcolonial awareness in study of the past.
