{"product_id":"approaches-to-teaching-chaucers-canterbury-tales-1","title":"Approaches to Teaching Chaucer's Canterbury Tales","description":"Chaucer’s \u003cem\u003eCanterbury Tales\u003c\/em\u003e was the subject of the first volume in the \u003cem\u003eApproaches to Teaching\u003c\/em\u003e series, published in 1980. But in the past thirty years, Chaucer scholarship has evolved dramatically, teaching styles have changed, and new technologies have created extraordinary opportunities for studying Chaucer. This second edition of \u003cem\u003eApproaches to Teaching Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales\u003c\/em\u003e reflects the wide variety of contexts in which students encounter the poem and the diversity of perspectives and methods instructors bring to it. Perennial topics such as class, medieval marriage, genre, and tale order rub shoulders with considerations of violence, postcoloniality, masculinities, race, and food in the tales.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe first section, “Materials,” reviews available editions, scholarship, and audiovisual and electronic resources for studying \u003cem\u003eThe Canterbury Tales\u003c\/em\u003e. In the second section, “Approaches,” thirty-six essays discuss strategies for teaching Chaucer’s language, for introducing theory in the classroom, for focusing on individual tales, and for using digital resources in the classroom. The multiplicity of approaches reflects the richness of Chaucer’s work and the continuing excitement of each new generation’s encounter with it.","brand":"Modern Language Association of America","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54187939791192,"sku":null,"price":84.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781603291408_253fba66-43ae-4f4f-b73d-e3e34dd9611f.jpg?v=1777099550","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/approaches-to-teaching-chaucers-canterbury-tales-1","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
