Chaucer's Self-Portrait and Dante's.
- Published
- Medium Aevum 29 (1960): 119-20.
- Description
- Suggests that Chaucer's self-characterization in Pr-ThL 7.695-97 derives from Dante's "Purgatorio" 19.52 and that the one follows the other in using the "dual first-person singular" and in separating Poet and Pilgrim as a narrative technique.
