Originally published in 1981, this second edition built on the
success of the first which had established itself as a standard
introduction to the poetry of Geoffrey Chaucer. It shows Chaucer
not only in the context of his own age, but, more important, as a
writer and a man who is still vivid to us so many years later. As
well as examining the early poems, Troilus and Criseyde, and The
Canterbury Tales the author gives a thorough account of Chaucer's
background. He examines the traditions in which he wrote, his
audience, and his position among his contemporaries. The second
edition was updated throughout and included a number of revisions
and additions, in particular on the second part of the Roman de la
Rose and on The Knight's Tale.
