| Title: | Chaucer metapage |
|---|---|
| Description: | The Chaucer Metapage is a website dedicated to the English poet Geoffrey Chaucer (c.1340-1400). The project was initiated at the 33rd International Congress of Medieval Studies and is now based at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. The project aims to promote Chaucer studies, particularly through distance learning. The site provides links to electronic versions of Chaucer texts, including: the Canterbury Tales; the Book of the Duchess; Troilus and Criseyde; the Parliament of Fowls; and the House of Fame. There are also links to audio versions of the texts, which may be helpful for students needing help with pronunciation of Middle English. The site also links to some useful contextual material relating to topics such as medieval women, and the history of Canterbury as well as online bibliographies of Chaucer studies. This resource would be of interest to anyone teaching Chaucer, as well as students studying his life and works. |
