The French story is only a part of the larger whole of the fox's adventure; the English is not, though linked thematically with the Marriage Group. Love for Pertelote makes Chauntecleer ignore his dream; in the French it is pride. Narrative…

The dream in PF is a "populist countervision" both to Cicero's "Dream of Scipio's" "stoicism that excludes love" and to the tercelets' 'fine amour that abuses (love)." Ultimately, "it is precisely the earthy and earthlythat are shown to serve...the…

Coverchiefs, while sometimes a sign of mourning, are more often read as a devilish device to "blind men's sight," as Robert Mannyng suggests. The Wife's coverchiefs serve as one of numerous signs that "her life...remains in theological disarray."

William Blake's criticism of GP can best be appreciated by considering his painting, Sir Jeffrey Chaucer and the Nine and Twenty Pilgrims on Their Journey to Canterbury, and his smaller engraving of the same subject. Blake's images, though…

Irony generated by the narrator's foreknowledge of the fates of his characters is subsumed to irony generated by the poet's transcendent Christian view of the narrator's limited moral judgments, whose inadequacies are signalled by images of…

The lists of lovers in PF extend Chaucer's commentary on the common profit. The lovers cited all neglected their political and social responsibilities for love.

In PF Proem, Chaucer uses the "Somnium" to maintain that the chasm between terrestrial and celestial love is bridgeable. Common profit is a moral and spiritual concept through which human love can assume greater order and direction.

As the figure of Briseida, Criseyd, Cressida moved from Benoit de Saint-Maure (ca. 1160) and Guido della Colonne (1287), through Boccaccio (1336) and Chaucer (ca. 1385), to Shakespeare (1601-1602) and Dryden (1679), her portrait becomes increasingly…

Ret is a mature expression of a poet in command of his faculties and intent. The Canon's Yeoman's disillusionment in CYT provides preparation for Ret, while ParsT prepares for the abandonment of sin. Structure and design of CYT and ParsT validate…
