Description
Observes the lack of "narratorial interactivity" (teller/tale relations) in the BBC adaptations of CT and explores several other "markedly un-Chaucerian" aspects of the television version of MilT, remarking that the series "does little to promote" understanding or appreciation of Chaucer's works.
