Professor Robertson is author of The Laborer’s Two Bodies: Labor
and <br>
the ‘Work’ of the Text in Medieval Britain, 1350-1500 (Palgrave
<br>
Macmillan, 2006) and co-editor (with Michael Uebel), of The Middle
<br>
Ages at Work: Practicing Labor in Late Medieval England (New York:
<br>
Palgrave Macmillan, 2004).<br><br>
Her current work traces the genealogy of medieval materialism up
<br>
through late fourteenth-century England and links its development
with <br>
the birth of a particularly Chaucerian poetics. In exploring the
<br>
interchange between Aristotelian natural philosophy and literary
<br>
aesthetics, her project shows how both poets and scholastic <br>
philosophers engaged with the “properties of things”—the
specification <br>
of the world around them—often times to very different ends.<br><br>
