Book The Parliament of Birds

Download or read book The Parliament of Birds written by Geoffrey Chaucer and published by Hesperus Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this collection of poems, among his very best, Chaucer showcases his lyrical skills to perfection. Verging from tragic to comic, the overriding theme of the poetry is love, in its many guises. Chaucer tells of his passion for reading, which allows him to eavesdrop on a "parliament of birds" on St Valentine's Day; he tells how he, as an inveterate reader, forsakes his books on the first of May to wander into the fields; he complains of being short of money; and he complains to his scribe for copying his verses badly. All in all, in the course of the poetry he reveals a lot about himself, and does so throughout in an engaging and civilized manner.

  • Release : 2017-08-15
  • ISBN : 9781974623259
  • Pages : 104 pages

Download or read book The Parliament of Fowls written by Greg Camp and published by . This book was released on 2017-08-15 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The life so short, the craft so long to learn. The opening line of Chaucer's poem is one that every person who lives by a skill understands. The particular craft that concerns the speaker is personified as Love, one that he is told that he has lost the taste for, as a sick man loses the sense of sweet and bitter things. But by the act of devotion in writing about what he is shown, he hopes to enter into Love's service.For the contemporary reader, the text is offered in both the original Middle English and in the modern version of the language, along with a guide to our understanding of how Chaucer would have pronounced his own words.This short work illustrates Chaucer's humor and presents an approachable example of a visio or dream vision and Medieval allegory. It is ideal for students starting out on a journey through the period's literature as well as for anyone wanting to enjoy a tale of squabbling characters yearning to win the affection of a noble lady.
