Opis

Excerpt from The Prologue, the Knight's Tale, and the Nun's Priest's Tale: From Chaucer's Canterbury Tales In 1367 he was granted a life pension of twenty marks for faithful service as a valet of the king's household. Greater responsibilities awaited him. From 1 37 0 to 1386 we find him frequently employed on diplo matic missions. Only two of these need detain us. From December 1, 1372, to April 28, 1373, he was sent on secret business of the king to Genoa and Florence. He thus passed some three months in the Italy of Petrarch and Boccaccio in an atmosphere of greater poetry and nobler painting and sculpture than the Middle Ages had yet seen. Such inżuences could not fail to affect profoundly Chaucer's view of his own art. The impression of this first visit was reinforced during a second mission, this time to Milan, May 28 to September 19, 1378.
