- Review
- Believes that Chaucer's allusions to Gower in the "Man of Law's Tale" are humorous; posits the CA was transported to Spain because Chaucer's sister-in-law Katherine Swynford married Enrique of Castile; discusses patronage; maintains that the dedication of "Troilus and Criseyde" to "moral Gower" was sincere; argues that Chaucer had more influence at court than did Gower.
