The author’s aim is to 鈥渞estore to the reading of the poem a background of medieval meanings familiar enough to Chaucer鈥檚 contemporary reader but almost lost to the modem.鈥 Mr. Koonce believes that fame was a clearly defined Christian concept in the Middle Ages, and his interpretation of Chaucer鈥檚 allegory proceeds from that central focus.
Originally published in 1966.
