- Published
- Chaucer Review 56.4 (2021): 378-96.
- Description
- Employs critical race studies and adaptation studies to trace the role and frequency of "somatic brownness" in CT and Rom. Considers brownness as a racial category that is capacious, before tracing "Chaucerian brownness" in several modern adaptations, including Patience Agbabi’s "Telling Tales" (2014).
