This is a general introduction to the reading of Chaucer. Topics dealt with are Chaucer himself: his life, his official career, his character as glimpsed through his work; Chaucer's England: a swift survey of social and political history, with parallels in Chaucer's work; a chapter on the Church in England in Chaucer's time; Chaucer's language, with sections on pronunciations and versification; Chaucer the writer, describing the works serially and assessing his literary art, with a section on his use of rhetoric; and Chaucer's science, showing how he drew on the learning of his time. An appendix on "some difficult words" treats those words which seem familiar but which imply mediaeval concepts now strange to us. It also serves as a general introduction to the series of texts of the Canterbury Tales. Solid binding. Moderate edgewear on the boards.
