Chaucer and the Making of English Poetry, Volume 1 : Love Vision and Debate EPUB
by P. M. Kean
Part of the Routledge Library Editions: Chaucer series
EPUB
Description
Originally published in 1972. This important work of Chaucerian scholarship deals with two aspects of the poet and his work - his individual achievement and his place in history - and demonstrates that in both these senses Chaucer is a maker of English poetry.
The author assesses the extent of Chaucer’s debt to the English tradition.
She considers the development of his ‘urbane’ manner as a new poetic technique and, with reference to such poems as the Parlement of Foules and the House of Fame, discusses new themes in the Love Vision.
She concludes with a detailed study of Chaucer’s great debate on love Troilus and Criseyde.
