DISSEMINAL CHAUCER Wins Award
Monday, February 15, 2010
- The Robert Penn Warren Center at Western Kentucky University announces that the award jury has chosen Peter W. Travis’s DISSEMINAL CHAUCER: Rereading the Nun’s Priest Tale for the 2009 Warren-Brooks Award for Outstanding Literary Criticism.
Among forty-two books submitted for this year’s contest, Travis’s book was chosen for the breadth and depth of Professor Travis’s scholarship, and the wit and originality of his writing. According to the award jury, “Travis captures the gusto, the canniness, the encyclopedic intelligence, and most of all, the wicked restless energy of Chaucer.”
The award presentation will be on April 16, 2010, on the campus of Western Kentucky University, during the Robert Penn Warren Circle’s annual meeting.
