John M. Bowers (English) had his article "The Myth of the Poor, Homeless Poet: Revising the Chaucer Biography" accepted for publication in the top-tier journal CHAUCER REVIEW. The outside reviewer remarked: "the essay offers a valuable corrective to established views about Chaucer's financial means, familial situation, social status, and likely lodging. I found it to be not a mere breath of fresh air but a hefty gust."
