De Quincey's Romanticism: Canonical Minority and the Forms of Transmission
Lehrer makes some interesting connections in this book as he explores the appropriation of medieval literary and 'courtly' conventions in the practice of letter writing in the early Tudor period. He's especially concerned with the figure of Chaucer's Pandarus, and the themes of voyeurism, self-fashioning and display which connect Chaucer's poem to the epistolary culture of the early sixteenth century.
As with a lot of scholarly monographs there are points where the argument can get a little repetitive and slightly monolithic -but Lehrer's close readings are sophisticated and suggestive. Recommended for anyone working on textual culture in the late medieval/early Tudor period.
