Chaucer's Cultural Geography PDF
Edited by Kathryn L. Lynch
Part of the Basic Readings in Chaucer and His Time series
Description
This compilation of new essays and essays published over the past fifty years explores Chaucer's experiences with the cultural other, especially Chaucer's relationship to Far Eastern, Islamic, and African sources.
While studies of Chaucer's orientalism have heretofore focused on the Squire's Tale , Chaucer's Cultural Geography considers many different Chaucerian works in the context of sexual geographies and colonizing and postcolonizing discourses.
It comes at a time when critical methodology is being debated and a variety of approaches to Chacuer studies using modes of analyses normally reserved for later periods, including Said's orientalism theories, Dollimore's transgressive proximity and new French feminism.
Moreover, the book fits well into the new emphasis in the Chaucer curriculum on globalism and multiculturalism.
