A Pilgrimage to Canterbury, and For Us, a Pilgrimage Through Hard Times

Date of Review:  Sep 22, 2001
The Bottom Line: I strongly recommend the Canterbury Tales to anyone who wishes to read literature from Middle European History, or even just looking to read a good book.
Review: Before I start my review, I would like to say a few words. First, allow me to apologize for my nonexistant ratings and not writing as much as I used to. Eleventh grade just started in the beginning of September, and so far, it has taken me on a...

chaucer's vision

Date of Review:  May 25, 2000
Review: I did an entire class on The Canterbury Tales one semester in college. I had read some tales before that in high school, but had not really delved deeply into any of them except "The Wyf of Bathe's Prologue and Tale".

I liked Chaucer from...

Classical comedy at its best.

Date of Review:  Jul 16, 2000
Review: I can't speak for everyone here, if I could I'd be in the circus, but the first time I heard the words "Canterbury Tales" I just knew I was going to hate it. Poetry? Come on teach, can't you just poke my eyes out with a stick or something? Written...

Canterbury Tales

Date of Review:  Nov 17, 2000
Review: This is a fictional account of thirty pilgrims on a sacred trip to Canterbury Cathedral. Despite the fact that this is a fictional account, I believe that Geoffrey Chaucer?s Canterbury Tales is an awesome representation of Medieval social structure...

Put your money on Chaucer over Shakespeare

Date of Review:  Mar 24, 2001
The Bottom Line: I loved it, you will love it...no questions asked. It is witty, true, and amazing that someone can get away with saying all these things.
Review: I read this beautiful poem a couple months ago in my literature class. It have never liked poems, but this one really hit the spot. I can state boldly that anyone who is going to read about something regarding british literature, will love this poem...

Date of Review:  Mar 8, 2000
Review: When I was assigned this book to read for my World Literature class, I was somewhat afraid. This was not only because I figured I wouldn't understand the language but also because it seemed extremely boring.However, once I bought the book and read...

Great Book

Date of Review:  Nov 26, 1999
Review: Geoffrey Chaucer was brilliant. You have to understand the history behind his stories. This particular book was written about pilgrims who went to worship at the Canterbury Cathedral following the martyrdom of Thomas Beckett. It almost seems like a...
