| Summary, etc | "This book is an ingeniously conceived account of the relation between the physical tomb of Chaucer and its place in the development of Chaucerian studies. Along the way, however, this account becomes more than merely ingenious in its excavation of a deeply compelling logic that links memorialization and canon formation. This is, in short, no mere 'Chaucer study.' Prendergast's examination of what is at stake not just in the history of Chaucer's tomb but also in the historiography implicit in Chaucerian criticism and the changing forms and interests of Chaucerian necrology is ultimately a kind of history of English literature, an account of the medievalism's implicit in the assertion of positive and negative literary values from the fifteenth into the twentieth centuries, from Thomas Hoccleve to T.S. Eliot. It should certainly appeal to literary scholars of all historical persuasions, and certainly will appeal to medievalists." -- D. Vance Smith, Princeton University |
