You can get this article from JSTOR, but you can only connect to JSTOR from an MSU connection -- either from an on-campus computer lab, or using your NetID. Make sure you know how to do this.

Miller attempts to give what he calls "an Augustinian interpretation" of this Tale.

Compare and contrast Miller's reading with your own reading of any other Tale, or of the ParT itself.
