Websites

Note: Remember that websites – including this one – are secondary resources like any other. They are of infinitely less use and value than your own reading of Chaucer's text, your enjoyment of it and your own thinking and writing about it.

The following contain useful information:

• Geoffrey Chaucer http://www.courses.fas.harvard.edu/~chaucer/
• The Chaucer Pedagogy Page http://afdtk.uaa.alaska.edu/pedagogy.htm

Remember: Much information on the web is poor, biased and/or old-fashioned. It is important to try to check the source of the site and to find out about the organization running it or the author(s). For some reason, online information about Chaucer seems particularly prone to being out of date, inaccurate or dull and simplistic. Perhaps some people assume that the Middle Ages themselves were like that! 

We recommend that any material you draw from websites and critics or editions should be clearly referenced in essays or project work.
