Opis

First published in 1916, The Textual Tradition of Chaucer’s Troilus compares the best unprinted manuscripts of Chaucer’s Troilus with the printed texts. The purpose of the volume is to evaluate eighteen manuscripts, to determine so far as may be their relation to one another and to Chaucer’s original, and to show how they are to be used for the establishing of a critical text. This book will be of interest to students of literature, linguistics and history.
