Description
Reviews Keats's "regular contact" with Chaucer's works and assesses TC as a "largely overlooked intertext" for "The Eve of St. Agnes" that illuminates "the creative tensions of St. Agnes and Keats's habits in reading medieval texts." Focuses on "Keats's affective identification with Troilus" and "the ways that St. Agnes rewrites Chaucer's tragedy."
