This is a five star scholarly/critical text- I do like dream visions best out of all the middle English genres but middle English itself is not something I'm a big fan of! Read this for revision purposes- lots of meta-text and stuff about daisies and seasonal openings to help me compare and contrast within the Chaucerian tradition of dream visions. Tomorrow I will read the middle English texts Pearl and Sir Gawain and the Green Knight and dip in and out of Langland's Piers Plowman to study some dream visions outside of the Chaucerian tradition.
