Dream Visions and Other Poems: A Norton Critical Edition

Description:

This Norton Critical Edition presents Chaucer’s four dream visions and selected shorter poems and is suitable for both beginning and advanced students.

The texts are extensively glossed and are accompanied by individual introductions and explanatory annotations. A lightly regularized system of spellings has been adopted. No prior knowledge of Chaucer is assumed.

“Contexts” connects the poems to their classical and medieval foundations and includes works by Virgil, Ovid, Cicero, Boethius, Dante, and Boccaccio, among others.

From the wealth of scholarly work available, the editor has chosen for “Criticism” six essays that address the poems’ central themes. Contributors include Charles Muscatine, A. C. Spearing, R. T. Lenaghan, Richard Firth Green, Elaine Tuttle Hansen, and Steven Kruger.

A Chronology and Selected Bibliography are also included.

I love shopping with Bolo. This was among my required texts for school. It was priced well and arrived about two days before the estimated arrival date. The text is challenging but the supplemental essays and annotations are clear and gives great insight to understanding the work of Chaucer.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful resource! To anyone studying medieval literature or Chaucer

Wonderful resource! To anyone studying medieval literature or Chaucer, it is a must have. (if you are a student studying Chucer's other work it is still a good idea to read this--especially f you are working on a Master's or Doctoral thesis or dissertation!)

Kathyrn Lynch's headnotes are extremely helpful. It's a strong edition and the contextual material--selections of the works that Chaucer borrowed heavily from--, are essential for understanding the dream visions.
