Abstract:
For literary historians with only few exceptions (e.g . J.W. Mackail, W.P. Ker, A.C. Spearing) Geoffrey Chaucer is unquestionably and exclusively a medieval poet. The belief that his literaryproduction undoubtedly makes part of medieval English literature seems firmly established and any doubt about it futile. In spite ofthis aprioristic attitude towards the problem of the relationship between Chaucer and the Middle Ages there are at least two major elements which may make one doubt how correct it is to take Chaucer's medievalism for grante.

Abstract:
Geoffrey Chaucer’s final utterance is so un-Chaucerian in sentiment that several ingenious theories have evolved over the years to account for its textual persistence. The Retraction has been read as a real confession by Chaucer the poet in the face of imminent death; as a realistic confession by Chaucer the Pilgrim in response to the Parson’s sermon; and as an ironic parody of both confession and retraction in keeping with the Manciple’s cynical counsel to silence.

Abstract:
Chaucer addressed some of his best known poetry to the Virgin Mary. Whatever basis such poetry may have had in personal religion, this discussion is interested in the fact that Chaucer’s marian writings are in large part the result of translation, adaptation, quotation, and allusion. That observation is not meant to be iconoclastic, for literature of the time did not have the present-day obsession with novelty, and much mediaeval religious poetry is derivative. In writing about the Virgin Mary, Chaucer sometimes layered borrowed passages in a complex of sources themselves borrowed, leaving the reader with echoes — echoes of other great writers such as Bernard of Clairvaux and Dante, as well as of the Bible, the Church’s hymnody, and the liturgy. Most of this layering occurs in, or prefaces, folkloric works which are hagiography at least in their origins: the Second Nun’s tale of St Cecilia and the Prioress’s tale of the schoolboy murdered for singing Alma redemptor is mater in a ghetto. Less complex is the short poem known as Chaucer’s A B C , translated from Guillaume de Deguilleville’s Pèlerinage de la vie humaine. Even less so are the two marian verses uttered by the Man of Law’s Constance as she enters her rudderless ship (II. 841-854). These pieces by Chaucer are not uniformly excellent. Some are marian passages in other works not themselves marian.

Abstract:
Many of the stories found in the works of Geoffrey Chaucer are adapted from other sources, a common practice amongst Medieval authors. But Chaucer often draws attention to his derivations by explicitly naming a source for the stories he uses. This strategy is employed in different ways. In Troilus and Criseyde, a false source is cited, but in the Clerk's Tale, Chaucer names the actual source of the story. In this thesis, identification and close examination of Chaucer's source materials reveal his changes to the derived texts, and an analysis of the role of the narrator in each case demonstrates the different narrative strategies he employs. Although Chaucer is clearly using different strategies in the two works, both raise questions about final authority over a text. These questions are the central issues explored in this thesis.

Abstract:
The late Middles Ages saw the development in Europe of increasingly complex, ambitious, and self-conscious forms of creative literature. In the works of poets such as Dante, Petrarch and Chaucer new models of authorship and poetic identity were being explored, new kinds of philosophical and aesthetic value attributed to literary discourse. But these creative developments also brought with them new dangers and tensions, a sense of guilt and uncertainty about the value of creative literature, especially in relation to the dominant religious values of late medieval culture. In this thesis I explore how these doubts and tensions find expression in Chaucer’s poetry, not only as a negative, constraining influence, but also as something which contributes to the shape and meaning of poetry itself. I argue that as Chaucer develops his own expansive, questioning poetics in The House of Fame and The Canterbury Tales, he problematises the principle of allegory on which the legitimacy of literary discourse was primarily based in medieval culture and the final fragments of The Canterbury Tales see Chaucer struggling, increasingly, to reconcile the boldness and independence of his poetic vision with the demands of his faith. This struggle, which emerges most strongly and polemically in the final fragments, I argue, runs in subtle and creative forms throughout the whole of Chaucer’s work. By seeing Chaucer in this light as a poet not of fixed, but of conflicted and vacillating intentions – a poet productively caught drawn between ‘game’ and ‘earnest’, radical ironies and Boethian truths – I attempt to account, in a holistic manner, for the major dichotomies that characterise both his work and its critical reception.
