Description
Explores questions of audience, occasion, and a writer's control in classical and early modern western rhetoric, and applies these questions in a "sample reading," examining TC, 3.1324–36 for the ways that it encourages readers "to re-experience and to reflect on their own experiences of love as they rewrite Chaucer's poem for him."
