- Description
- Surveys the "global reach" of the literatures and languages that underlie the sources and settings of CT (with particular attention to SqT), and describes the multilingual, international range of translations, modernizations, adaptations, and other "creative re-writings" of Chaucer's work. Suggests that because CT "began by reconfiguring relationships among the world's people and languages, they now can be remade to similar ends, thereby allowing us to understand Chaucer as England's first global poet."
