Abstract
A scholarly program that reaches out to students of The Canterbury Tales to relate its characters and themes to everyday life in late-14th-century England. Period art of exceptional richness is combined with location photography that retraces the April pilgrimage to Archbishop Becket’s shrine at Canterbury; excerpts are read from various tales; and the famous beginning is heard in Middle English.
