Title A name given to the resource The Art of Impersonation: A General Prologue to the 'Canterbury Tales' Description An account of the resource Readers have over-emphasized the persona of the narrator(s) in CT, making the tales themselves but an appendage to the frame. But in fact there are many internal contradictions in such a "dramatic" reading of the poem. The tales are insistently "textual," i.e., written things, and the only voice is that "of" (not "in") the text itself. CT is an extended attempt to see from the manifold points of view of others, and hence one might speak not of "Chaucer the maker" but of "Chaucer the poem."

Description An account of the resource Describes the aesthetic and moral principles and practices, overt and covert, of the CT, acclaiming the vitality of the "framing structure" of the links and the complex ironies of the narrator (especially in Ret) for the ways that they enable and underscore the encyclopedic multiform variety of the individual Tales that "collectively" comprise a "broad examination of the worlds of social, moral, and religious experiences." Argues that the unifying theme of the poem is a "serious statement" about the "range of human experience within the compass of pilgrimage," interpreting fifteen of the Tales for the ways that their literary variety reflects the "modes of experience underlying them" discussed here as "religio-romantic" or "comic" representations of relations between the human self and deity.

Chaucer's unfinishedness is due in part to the uses he found for incomplete or non-definitive statement and due in part to the aesthetic tradition he inherited. The richness of vision and the multiplicity of meaning which characterize his work are due in large part to the philosophical unfinishedness of his art.
