This is a wide-ranging and detailed study of English narrative
verse in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries. Piero Boitani
describes and analyses the undisputed masterpieces of narrative
(such as the works of the Gawain poet, Langland, Gower and
Chaucer), as well as the anonymous romances and specimens of
religious and comic narrative which form the background to the
better-known poems. The book is divided by literary genres or
structural systems: chapters on the religious, comic and romance
traditions are followed by a discussion of dream and visionary
narratives and a chapter on story collections including those of
Gower. The rest of the book is devoted to Chaucer, who mastered all
these types.
