An introduction to the Canterbury tales : reading, fiction, context, Helen Phillips

Creator
Summary
"An Introduction to the Canterbury Tales provides both an accessible overview of the Tales for the student and a major, new critical study. It contains full readings of each tale, together with clear exposition of their historical and literary context. Modern theoretical approaches to Chaucer are explored - particularly with reference to gender, politics, fictionality, and narration - as well as critical views from the past Chaucer's popular image as a bawdy humorist and a proto-novelist is re-evaluated."--BOOK JACKET
