Sat down the avenue earlier thinking about #Chaucer, as obviously we all do when the sun is shining. Thinking about the Tales generally & the bits of it that might speak to us about home. What are your favourite parts? #CanterburyTales

This painting, a celebration of the English language, was created by a British painter Ford Madox Brown in 1847-1851. Chaucer, the ‘father of English literature’, is reading lines from The Canterbury Tales to King Edward III, who first championed the English language over the French.

The droghte of March hath perced to the roote,
And bathed every veyne in swich licour
Of which vertu engendred is the flour;
Whan Zephirus eek with his sweete breeth
Inspired in every holt and heeth
The tendre croppes, and the yonge sonne
Hath in the Ram his half cours yronne,
And smale foweles maken melodye,
That slepen al the nyght with open ye
(So Priketh hem Nature in hir corages),
Thanne longen folk to goon on pilgrimages.

Hi! My name is Ethan. I live in #BrooklynNY. I’m an #English professor at The King’s College, where I teach all kinds of #writing and #literature, from #Shakespeare to Russian novels to Southern lit. Most of my published writing is about #medieval literature, namely from 14th-century England (#Chaucer, the #GawainPoet, #Wyclif, etc.). I also like to write #fiction. 1/4

This is one of my favorite things I've had a chance to write recently, because I've always been obsessed with Chaucer as well as this period in British history. Also! You should buy a subscription to Uncanny! #chaucer #medieval #history #storytelling #uncannymagazine #peasantsrevolt https://www.uncannymagazine.com/article/what-a-fourteenth-century-legal-case-can-teach-us-about-storytelling/
