For all its spiritual cheerfulness and obvious importance as a tale to conclude tales, The Parson's Tale seems to have inspired sentence and solaas in remarkably few critics. . This rethinking of traditional scholarship on The Canterbury Tales will be of great interest to Chaucer scholars and students of medieval literature.
For all its spiritual cheerfulness and obvious importance as a tale to conclude tales, a last word from a notable maker of words, The Parson''s Tale seems to have inspired sentence and solaas in remarkably few critics. This volume rejects the tradition that assumes the tale to be of questionable literary value. The studies included span the range of Parson''s Tale criticism from the textual, to the philological, to the hermeneutical. What they share is the assumption that if one is to understand the role of The Parson''s Tale, one must begin by accepting the language and method by which Chaucer fashioned it. This rethinking of traditional scholarship on this crucial aspect of The Canterbury Tales will be of great interest to Chaucer scholars and students of medieval literature.
