The edition also features Robert Henryson's Testament of Cresseid, the poignant sequel to Troilus and Criseyde. A diverse group of distinguished Chaucerians contribute ten essays that illuminate the major scholarly issues raised by this complex poem.
For students with no prior knowledge of Chaucer or Middle English, this edition provides easy access to the poem. Additional features include a glossary and selected bibliography, making it an ideal resource for scholars and students alike.
