A fresh study of Chaucer which embraces modern critical theory to provide a stimulating re-evaluation of the full range of his work. Feminist criticism and the work of Bakhtin receive particular attention and new readings that reconsider the political and social context of his writings are also discussed. Full allowance is paid to his Chaucer's pre-Tales works, alongside the Canterbury Tales themselves.
