Chaucer's Anti-clericalism as Seen in the Monk
- Published
- The Fleur-de-Lis Review (December 25, 1980): 25-54.
- Description
- Chaucer's Monk is by no means an ideal clergyman. He is one of the best targets of Chaucer's satire. He shows the degenerating status of the Church and the religious orders, to remind the readers of the need of renovation from within.
