Viac o knihe
Exploring the fifteenth century's literary landscape, the author challenges the notion of it being a "Drab Age" by highlighting the influential role of Chaucer as a foundational figure in English poetry. Through an examination of various poets, scribes, and printers, the text reveals how Chaucer was constructed as a revered "poet laureate." It delves into the complexities of his imitators and readers, showcasing characters from his works who embody themes of subjugation and innocence.
