Description
"[A]nalyzes scenes of 'undisciplined reading' in late medieval texts: that is, scenes in which characters read without formal training and with the 'wrong' emotions." Includes discussion of NPPT as a "bungled interpretation of Marie de France's translation of Aesop," a response to MkT, and exemplification of the Host's misinterpretations.
