The Language And Metre Of Chaucer is a comprehensive book written by Bernard Ten Brink that explores the language and poetry of Geoffrey Chaucer, one of the most important English poets of the Middle Ages. The book is divided into two parts: the first part focuses on Chaucer's language, while the second part examines his metre.In the first part, Brink analyzes Chaucer's language in terms of its vocabulary, syntax, and grammar. He also examines Chaucer's use of dialects and regional variations, as well as his borrowings from other languages. Brink shows how Chaucer's language evolved over time and how it reflects the social and cultural context of his era.In the second part, Brink delves into Chaucer's use of metre, including his use of rhyme, alliteration, and other poetic devices. He shows how Chaucer's metre reflects his literary influences and how it contributes to the overall meaning and effect of his poetry.Throughout the book, Brink provides numerous examples from Chaucer's works, including The Canterbury Tales, Troilus and Criseyde, and The Book of the Duchess. He also draws on contemporary scholarship and critical theory to provide a nuanced and insightful analysis of Chaucer's language and poetry.Overall, The Language And Metre Of Chaucer is an essential resource for anyone interested in Chaucer's works or the development of English literature in the Middle Ages.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
