Paper Summary:
This paper compares two of Chaucer's poems. It explains that in both poems, the narrators' form of vision, the setting, the device for heightening the interest in the dream(s) and for developing the theme, are indebted primarily to the literary genre of love.From the Paper:
"It has always been said that Chaucer was capable of playing an unscrupulous game of hide-and-seek with his readers and often carrying it to the very verge of coyness, and that his remarks, though plentiful, are frequently noncommital or patently ironical. Most scholars would probably agree, however, that the man's personality did in fact appear in his works. For instance, discussing Chaucer's attitude toward love and virtue, or identification and pursuit, all involve a close examination of his poems, the Book of the Duchess and House of Fame."More papers on Chaucer's Poems:
