乔叟

In our fantasy life we court paranoia, lapping up crime thrillers and spy novels. We are fascinated by rogues, from Chaucer's Pardoner to Del Boy.

从乔叟笔下的忏悔者到热播喜剧中的人物德尔小子，这些流氓无赖无一不让我们为之倾倒。

Then, Mr. Lin Yung-ching presented the second report on The Pardoner』s Prologue and Tale from The Canterbury Tales by Geoffrey Chaucer. In the tale, Chaucer pointed out the main theme: Radix malorum est cupiditas through self-analysis and parables told by the pardoner selling indulgence.

接著，第二篇由林源庆先生报告《赦罪修士的故事》，本文为一短篇故事，节选自英国作家乔叟Geoffrey Chaucer的《坎特伯利故事集》，故事中藉由贩卖赎罪券的赦罪修士之自我剖析以及其所讲述的譬喻故事，点出贪婪为万恶渊薮的寓意。

The fullest and perhaps earliest description of the tradition occurs in Chaucer's Parlement of Foules, composed around 1380, which takes place "on Seynt Valentynes day,/Whan every foul cometh there to chese his make ."

This occurs in Chaucer passim.

这在乔叟的作品中处处可见。

Only the parish priest earned Chaucer's praise as a kind and hard-working Christian, but he was poor like his brother the ploughman.

只有小教区牧师受到乔叟的称赞，认为他是真正善良勤奋的基督教徒，因为他与庄稼汉兄弟一样过着贫穷的生活。

In short,in addition to his contributiong to English prosody,Chaucer also developed the art of literature itself.

总之，乔叟除了对英语诗体学的贡献外，还发展并改进了文学艺术自身。

A Rondel of Merciless Beauty Geoffrey Chaucer Your two great eyes will slay me suddenly; Their beauty shakes me who was once serene; Straight through my heart the wound is quick and keen.

Edmund Spenser is the most outstanding poet who lived between the age of Chaucer and that of Shakespeare.

Edmund Spenser said tribute to him as his master; many of Shakespears's plays show thorough assimilation of Chaucer's comic spirit.
