Description

This performance event presents brief readings from Chaucer's Canterbury Tales and from his Troilus and Criseyde. Following up papers presented in "Is There a Text in This Middle English? Chaucer’s "Text" and the Oral-Aural Context of His Oeuvre (1)," the performances will highlight the emerging, and to some degree new, text of the works being performed--what Mary Carruthers has termed "the sociable text."
