Chaucer in Context


Chaucer and the Late Medieval World is a really interesting narrative. The second chapter explores the idea of Chaucer-poet, the fifth chapter is entitled "The Road to Canterbury" and talks about saints, pilgrimage and religion at that historical moment, there is also a section on class and commerce...the list goes on (and includes a gender and sexuality section). A very comprehensive source.
