Chaucer on Screen Contents

The following contents list for Kathleen Coyne Kelly and Tison Pugh's new book Chaucer on Screen: Absence, Presence, and Adapting the Canterbury Tales is based on that in WorldCat (http://www.worldcat.org/title/chaucer-on-screen-absence-presence-and-adapting-the-canterbury-tales/oclc/945948419). A PDF of the complete contents pages can be accessed from the publisher at https://ohiostatepress.org/books/BookPages/kelly_pugh_chaucer.html.

It looks to be a fairly complete volume. Too bad its priced at $94.95(though a PDF version is offered for $19.95, if you can live without a physical book).
