À propos de cet audio
Today's featuring guest is Joel Grossman, a lecturer in Medieval and Renaissance Literature at the University of Surrey. Our literary journey takes us deep into the heart of Chaucer's "The Canterbury Tales," with a keen focus on the captivating Wife of Bath.
We discuss the Wife of Bath's bold and modern discourse on love, marriage, and the role of men in society. Join us as we explore the shockwaves she sends through her audience with her unconventional views, shedding light on the complexities of her character and the society she inhabited.
We explore the challenges and nuances of how a male author like Chaucer portrays the female perspective. Joel brings his expertise to the forefront as we discuss the inherent problems and potential biases that arise when men attempt to authentically write from a female point of view.
