Teaching Chaucer and Popular Culture: A Prolegomena
- Published
- Chaucer Review 48.2 (2013): 190-204.
- Description
- Reflects on the importance of incorporating the "professional and popular" representations of CT to enhance classroom teaching of Chaucer. Films, including Brian Helgeland's "A Knight's Tale," Jonathan Myerson's animated "Canterbury Tales" trilogy, and contemporary murder mysteries, such as Paul C. Doherty's Canterbury Tales Murders series, can be used to "offer a fuller understanding of Chaucer's continuing canonicity and value in the larger cultural economy."
