Chaucer/Significance of Love in 2 Poems
[ send me this paper ]
A 14 page research paper that argues that love plays a pivotal thematic role in two of Geoffrey Chaucer's greatest poems, The Book of the Duchesse and The Parliament of Fowles. While Chaucer is acknowledged as one of the greatest and most eloquent advocates of love in English literature, in these poems, he qualified his endorsement and dedication to love by placing it within certain institutional and societal boundaries. In The Book of the Duchesse, his elegy of consolation over the death of the Black Knight's lady is couched within the parameters established by the conventions of courtly love. Likewise, while the Parliament of Fowles is a love poem, Chaucer pictures love as susceptible to certain natural laws that should be meticulously followed. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Chaucer: Compassionate towards Human Frailty?
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length.
The question we shall seek to answer herein is whether Chaucer
was tolerant of human frailty. By examining several of his works
in general, it is easy to see that Chaucer not only was not
tolerant of human shortcomings, but he actually preyed upon them,
making light of them in his works. He played up the image of man
as a bumbling fool, and the tragedy and trouble that many took
upon himself foolishly. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
