- Description
- Explains how MilT has overdetermined scholarship concerning the folk motif of the misdirected kiss, limiting understanding of the range of the motif. Expands this range, and enlarges the number and variety f analogues to Chaucer's use of the motif. Appends the Middle Dutch text and modern English translation of one of these analogues, published in 1641, here titled "Refreins of the Young Chamber of Haarlem."
