We now interrupt our interruption of our regular service with discussion of Geoffrey Chaucer's "The Canterbury Tales" beginning with the "General Prologue."
Dr Peter Groves continues with us and reads to us in Medieval "english," explains the "invention" of iambic pentameter, tells us what was so important about spring, and pilgrimage, and Canterbury, and blows our minds with the "great vowel shift," among other delights.
