Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book investigates the origins of Chaucer's poem "Anelida and Arcite". Scholars have long debated the source of Chaucer's inspiration for this poem, with no consensus emerging. The author examines evidence from the poem itself and from Chaucer's other works to argue that the "Heroides" by Ovid was the primary influence on "Anelida and Arcite". The author provides a close reading of both works, identifying numerous thematic and stylistic similarities that support this claim. In doing so, the author sheds new light on Chaucer's creative process and the literary context in which he wrote. This book will be of interest to scholars of Chaucer and medieval literature, as well as anyone interested in the sources of literary inspiration. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
