Judith Ferster

TL;DR: Ferster's chapter on Gower, in this new study of the Furstenspiegel tradition in the late Middle Ages, is a lengthened version of the essay entitled "O Political Gower" as discussed by the authors that appeared in the 1993 special issue of Mediaevalia (reviewed in JGN 13, no. 2, pp. 9-10).

TL;DR: Ferster as discussed by the authors argues that the insights of modern phenomenological hermeneutics can enrich our understanding of Chaucer and shows that interpretation is one of the central concerns of his poems.

TL;DR: In this paper, a Magus and an impoverished Jew meet while traveling and chat about their beliefs, and the Magus wants to promote the good for himself, his family, and all men because he believes, if any euyl fall to any leuyng man, bat pat euele fallys to me.
