In Ernest Games Carl Lindahl recovers a folkloric world long
hidden fromreaders of Chaucer. Lindahl is the first critic to
demonstrate how the poem reflectsthe social and artistic patterns
of medieval folk performance. Combining currentapproaches from the
fields of literary criticism, social history, and folklore, Earnest
Games begins with a study of Chaucer's setting and characters.
Lindahldiscovers that Chaucer gives each community -- the gentils,
the churls, and thepilgrims -- a game strategy that faithfully
reflects the social realities of theEnglish Middle Ages.
