Description
Examines marginal annotations in the surviving manuscripts of TC with the purpose of exploring both the reception of the poem and the role of the scribes in its textual transmission. The marginalia are analyzed not only from a textual, thematic, linguistic, and paleographical point of view, but also from the perspective of the copyists and their preferences when reading and annotating Chaucer's text, which contributes to understanding the profiles of these scribes.
