- Description
- Studies the paratextual materials that accompany and supplement the text of Chaucer's works in Speght's editions of 1598 and 1602, showing that these materials present Chaucer to early modern readers as ancient but still worth reading, in part because of Spenser's imitation of and high regard for his predecessor, mentioned by Speght.
