She, This in Blak takes a fresh look at Chaucer's great Trojan
romance, Troilus and Criseyde, in light of recent scholarship on
late scholastic discourses on representation and causality as they
pertain to human perception and judgment. This study also
contributes to a growing literature on the impact of scholastic
psychological theory upon contemporary cultural forms by examining
the way in which late medieval accounts of perception and cognition
can illuminate the construction of the poem's subjects, including
one of the most compelling and controversial figures in medieval
literature, Chaucer's Criseyde. By examining Chaucer's depiction of
Troilus, Pandarus, and Criseyde within this contemporary cultural
context, She, This in Blak offers a better grounded and more
historically illuminating view of the poem than is provided by
psychological readings based on modern constructions of
intentionality.
