Su questo libro

Recensione:

"The acuteness of Corinne Saunders′s analyses makes this volume considerably more than a collection of critical extracts; it manages to be at once illuminating about Chaucer, Chaucerian criticism, and twentieth–century criticism in general, its range, its concerns, its disagreements, and its radical insights." Medium Aevum LXXI/2002

"Saunders′s Chaucer is a thought–inspiring and highly recommended coursebook to use beside The Riverside Chaucer." English Studies

L'autore:

Corinne Saunders is Lecturer at the University of Durham. Her previous publications include Forest of Medieval Romance (1993) and Rape and Ravishment in the Literature of Medieval England (2001).
