Status Updates From The Canterbury Tales

Started listening to John Fleming's Chaucer class on this and it has enhanced the reading greatly. While I found the work enjoyable in its own right, the depth of the work was unclear to me. Hearing Fleming's framing of the Tales within the history of European literature, its relationship to The Consolation of Philosophy and Romance of the Rose has made this one of the most engaging literary experiences I've had.

only read the prologue so far, but dude… i might be a fan 👀

why the eff does it cost 40 dollars though 🤨

page six sevennn. anyways having my expectations very pleasantly flipped on their head by the miller's tale! no longer is everyone a perfect little angel, outmogging each other in nobility. the miller himself is a rude drunkard and his story is about adultery and other inappropriate topics...
