- Description
- Reviews studies of Criseyde's character by G. L. Kittredge, George Mizener, and C. S. Lewis, and argues that she is "the finger pointing in accusation against the code of courtly love." She shows us that "we mortals are fools to think that by our secular religion we can make a law of fidelity which can preserve love beyond anything more than a passing moment."
