The Language and Metre of Chaucer is a book written by Bernard Ten Brink that explores the linguistic and poetic techniques used by Geoffrey Chaucer in his works. The book is divided into two parts: the first part focuses on Chaucer's language, examining his vocabulary, syntax, and grammar in order to shed light on his writing style and the evolution of the English language during the Middle Ages. The second part of the book examines Chaucer's use of metre, including his use of rhyme, rhythm, and other poetic devices. Through close analysis of Chaucer's works, Ten Brink provides readers with a deeper understanding of the language and poetry of one of the most important writers in the English literary canon.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
