This collection looks beyond the literary, religious, and
philosophical aspects of Chaucer's texts to a new mode of
interdisciplinary scholarship: one that celebrates the richness of
Chaucer's visual poetics. The twelve illustrated essays make
connections between Chaucer's texts and various forms of visual
data, both medieval and modern. Basing their approach on
contemporary understandings of interplay between text and image,
the contributors examine a wealth of visual material, from medieval
art and iconographical signs to interpretations of Chaucer rendered
by contemporary artists. The result uncovers interdisciplinary
potential that deepens and informs our understanding of Chaucer's
poetry in an age in which digitization makes available a wealth of
facsimiles and other visual resources. A learned assessment of
imagery and Chaucer's work that opens exciting new paths of
scholarship, Chaucer: Visual Approaches will be welcomed by
scholars of literature, art history, and medieval and early modern
studies. The contributors are Jessica Brantley, Joyce Coleman,
Carolyn P. Collette, Alexandra Cook, Susanna Fein, Maidie Hilmo,
Laura Kendrick, Ashby Kinch, David Raybin, Martha Rust, Sarah
Stanbury, and Kathryn R. Vulic.
