- Comprises appreciative discussions of sixty "classics" of world literature, from "Gilgamesh" to the plays of Chekhov, including a discussion of CT (pp. 141-45) that emphasizes Chaucer's skills of characterization and comments on relations between tales and tellers ("The Tales judge the narrators" ), describing the poem as the "perfect model" for would-be writers.
