- Description
- Questions “to what extent might late medieval Christian intellectual and historical engagements with Judaism be productive for readings of Chaucerian texts not only when Jews are directly represented but also in the absence of such explicit reference?” Begins by cataloguing the explicit mentions of Jews and Judaism in CT before discussing how Judaism might be read in temporality, metaphysics, and spatiality.
