- Description
- Argues that both Guillaume de Lorris and Jean de Meun--and their "respective 'poetics'"--are "at issue" in BD 321–34 (where the "Roman de la Rose" is named), and in GP 725–46 ("Chaucer's Apology"). These evince Chaucer's deep, sophisticated, and career-long engagement with poetic sensibilities that underlie the "double-author" "Rose" and its views on glossing, translation, and truth-value. Also comments on Chaucer's use of the "Rose" in LGWP F328-31
