Description
Originally published in 1981, this second edition built on the success of the first which had established itself as a standard introduction to the poetry of Geoffrey Chaucer.
It shows Chaucer not only in the context of his own age, but, more important, as a writer and a man who is still vivid to us so many years later.
As well as examining the early poems, Troilus and Criseyde, and The Canterbury Tales the author gives a thorough account of Chaucer's background.
He examines the traditions in which he wrote, his audience, and his position among his contemporaries.
The second edition was updated throughout and included a number of revisions and additions, in particular on the second part of the Roman de la Rose and on The Knight's Tale.
