| Abstract
|
:
|
'Chaucerian Conflict' offers a different reading of Chaucer. While most critics have seen his work as essentially socially optimistic and congenial, this book argues that Chaucer was concerned with conflict and social antagonism. His texts are examined alongside a variety of poetry and historical documents from the period.
