Description - Chaucer Yearbook by Michael Salda

Chaucer Yearbookis an annual volume devoted to the exploration of English literature of the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, containing both articles and reviews. As its title suggests, articles on Chaucer serve as the core of the journal. In this volume, there are, for example, substantial essays on Chaucer's puzzling request for money in the Man of Law's Prologue and on the medieval debate over images as it affects the Physician's Tale. However, considerable space is devoted to other authors and topics; subjects treated here include the role of the `pious laywoman' in Middle English romance and the impact of the fourteenth-century agrarian crisis and its impact on Pearl. The wide-ranging reviews cover titles of significant interest to those teaching or studying late medieval literature in general.
