Troilus and Criseyde
Join us to read Chaucer’s Troilus and Criseyde, an epic love story relating a doomed romance during the Siege of Troy. During the group we will read and translate excerpts from the text, as well as discuss the language and context of the poem.
In Hilary we will be reading Books III and IV – even if you did not attend in Michaelmas, you are more than welcome to join us as we will be recapping Books I and II.
All are welcome!
