Download or read book Troilus and Cressida written by William Shakespeare and published by . This book was released on 2018-03-28 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Troilus and Criseyde is a re-telling, in the Middle English vernacular, of the legendary tale of Troilus and Cressida, which is set during the Trojan War. Chaucer composed the poem in rime royale, probably in the 1380's and the finished and highly polished work is often considered his finest achievement. The narrative appears to have been based by Chaucer on the tale Il Filostrato in Boccaccio's Decameron, and though a tragedy in essence Chaucer introduced elements of humour, while drawing a sensitive portrait of Troilus as the deserted lover, and Criseyde as the unfortunate betrayer. Classed as a courtly romance, the poem helped to bring the Medieval Renaissance to English literature, with a subtle blend of classical story, medieval courtliness and English character depiction. The eloquent and cynical Pandarus who leads Criseyde astray (hence the obsolete term 'pandar' for a pimp or procurer), is a type that recurs in later literature, for example as the Shakespearean characters Iago in Othello and Lachimo in Cymbeline.
