The latest volume in the Chaucer Bibliographies series, meticulously assembled by Kenneth Bleeth, is the most comprehensive record of scholarship on Chaucer's Squire's Tale, Franklin's Tale, and Physician's Tale. The bibliography treats each tale as a unit, enables the reader to track the many connections between the Squire's and Franklin's Tales, and records the recent resurgence of interest in the Physician's Tale. Each bibliographical entry includes an annotation summarizing the content or key argument of the publication. Each of the three chapters includes a section on the work's sources, analogues, and later influence, and is prefaced by an essay that surveys the critical reception of the work. Containing almost two thousand entries, this volume covers publications both major and minor from 1900 to 2005.
