Title:
Chaucer and Feminism: A Magpie View [The author reacts to criticism from David Aers at a 1990 conference about critics who use snippets of theory indiscriminately. Martin defends the use of a variety of theoretical approaches and cites her arguments in her monograph, "Chaucer's Women: Nuns, Wives, and Amazons" (MacMillan, 1990), which relied on close readings, deconstruction, Foucault's Understanding of the history of sex, Bakhtin's notion of the dialogic, feminist theory, class analysis, and other methods. Title note supplied by Feminae.].
