Chaucer's Neoplatonism: Varieties of Love, Friendship, and Community

By John M Hill

Book Overview

Chaucer's Neoplatonism covers his major works and the ways in which he has absorbed a Boethian, essentially rational Neoplatonism. By means of that philosophy he poetically engages issues of truth, falsehood, love, friendship, joy, and community. His widely recognized, capacious humanism arises from that engagement.
