Chaucer, Boccaccio, and the Debate of Love: A Comparative Study of The Decameron and The Canterbury Tales
Thompson, N. S. (Lecturer in English, Lecturer in English, Christ Church, Oxford)
This is the first ever major study to explore links between the two most popular collections of medieval narrative. By examining the Decameron and the Canterbury Tales as a whole, the author reveals many surprising similarities which have hitherto remained unnoticed, from the way they discuss fiction to their treatment of it.
