书目名称 | Chaucer‘s Jobs | 编辑 | David R. Carlson | 视频video | | 丛书名称 | The New Middle Ages | 图书封面 |  | 描述 | Geoffrey Chaucer was not a writer, primarily, but a privileged official place-holder. Prone to violence, including rape, assault, and extortion, the poet was employed first at domestic personal service and subsequently at police-work of various sorts, protecting the established order during a period of massive social upset. Chaucer‘s Jobs shows that the servile and disciplinary nature of the daily work Chaucer did was repeated in his poetry, which by turns flatters his aristocratic betters and deals out discipline to malcontent others. Carlson contends that it was this social-political quality of Chaucer‘s writings, not artistic merit, that made him the ‘Father of English Poetry‘. | 出版日期 | Book 2004 | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-137-03914-9 | isbn_softcover | 978-0-230-60243-4 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-137-03914-9Series ISSN 2945-5936 Series E-ISSN 2945-5944 | issn_series | 2945-5936 | copyright | Palgrave Macmillan, a division of Nature America Inc. 2004 |
