Description:
The poems in this volume were prized and preserved because of their association with Chaucer's name. The various genres represented in this sampler - the dream vision, good counsel, female panegyric, mass parody, proverbial wisdom, lovers' dialogue, prophecy, advice to princes, elegiac complaint, courtly parody, and anti-feminist satire - attest to the diversity of late-medieval literary tastes and to the flexibility of the courtly idiom.
