About: This first modern treatment of the Chaucerian Apocrypha--the 51 spurious works included in the folio editions printed between 1532 and 1721--addresses the nature of canon formation and why the apocrypha became a Chaucerian canon of its own, while making a larger argument about how Chaucer is constructed, or invented, by his readers.
