Description
Describes late medieval literary production in the city of Canterbury and explores its literary affiliations, ummarizing its place in early English Christianity and the impact of Becket's martyrdom. Highlights works produced in Canterbury or written about it, including CT and "The Tale of Beryn," aligning CT with the "fraught and controversial nature" of actual pilgrimages to Canterbury.
