Epigraph

Dedication

First words

Foreword
Oxford Student Texts are specifically aimed at presenting poetry and drama to an audience studying English literature at an advanced level.

Chaucer's Miller's Tale in Context
Conditions of writing
At the time Chaucer (c. 1343-1400) wrote and for two centuries afterwards, it was impossible to make a living by writing alone.

Quotations

The MILLERE was a stout carl for the nones;
Ful byg he was of brawn, and eek of bones.
That proved wel, for over al ther he cam,
At wrastlynge he wolde have alwey the ram.
(p. 9)
