- Description
- Explores tragic fate and the genre of tragedy in TC, arguing that the "double sorwe" of the opening of the poem (I.1) anticipates the "tragedye" mentioned at the end (V.1786) and that each applies to Criseyde as well as to Troilus. Includes discussion of the Theban allusions in the story, pparticularly the narrative of the siege read in the "paved parlour" (II.82).
