- Description
- Shows that the "sustained concern about women's agency" in National Library of Scotland, MS Advocates 19.2.1 (Auchinleck) "mirrors" Chaucer's similar concern, and that "the complexity with which Chaucer treats that agency can be found in the Auchinleck too." Furthermore, “the similarity is not due to a direct line of influence between manuscript and author, but stems from a mutually shared 14th century London literary microculture."
