- Description
- Treats the Old Man of PardT as a figure of the Wandering Jew, exploring relations between the figure and the transtemporal materiality of relics, and linking it with "other explicit and implicit references to Jews" in the depiction of the Pardoner (especially his hare-like glaring eyes) and his Tale. Includes attention to oathtaking and the Host's threat to the Pardoner.
