The English language has changed dramatically over the past 500 years, making it increasingly difficult for students to read Chaucer''s works. Assuming no previous linguistic knowledge or familiarity with Middle English, Simon Horobin introduces students to Chaucer''s language and the importance of reading Chaucer in the original, rather than modern translation.
