- Description
- Treats Pandarus as a figure or personification of lust in TC, counterpointing courtly love as manifested in Troilus. Examines Pandarus's rhetoric, along with Troilus's and Criseyde's interpretations of it, arguing that Chaucer's use of allegory is "self-reflexive" and makes readers "complicit" in making meaning.
