Description:
Detailed textual analysis of the tales of the Miller, the Nun's Priest, the Wife of Bath and the Pardoner, as well as the General Prologue, invites the reader to sharpen critical faculties, extend knowledge and engage with the text itself in order to appreciate the work of this fascinating, complex and surprisingly modern writer more fully. Whether considered an expert or a student, this study has something for you, as it demonstrates various approaches that can be adopted to learn about style, structure, multiple voices and the key themes of Chaucer's work.
