Description
Identifies the "sense of middleness" found in Middle English verse that rejects "received concepts of poetic form and offers alternatives.” Includes a reading of HF "in which Chaucer presents a radically unconventional definition of 'poetic voice' in order to forge a new basis for the vernacular poetry he proposes to begin." Also treats "Pearl" and "Sir Gawain and the Green Knight."
