Abstract

Geoffrey Chaucer with his vast experience and studies, as the father of English STYLE="font-style:inherit;color:#ff0078"> POETRY, in the turn of the century, between Middle and Modern English, played a great role. The STYLE of STYLE="font-style:inherit;color:#ff0078"> POETRY that he started, such as rhyme royal or heroic couplet and used them in his best works, became a model to the great writers after him. Chaucers style of STYLE="font-style:inherit;color:#ff0078"> POETRY was used by Spenser, Shakespeare, Milton, Dryden, Pope and a big number of the other writers. His school education and twenty five years of service in the court and royal family, his missions to France, Italy and Spain, his meetings with such great writers as Boccaccio and Petrarch, his knowledge of Latin, French and Italian languages were good reasons for his promo.tion to the highest positions in the civil services and the Royal Court. His knowledge, originality,position and works have made him an eternal figure so that his works after six hundred years are still in print and studied today. His masterpiece The CanterburyTales,which is not complete, was written within the last fourteen years of his life. The subject of some of the STYLE="font-style:inherit;color:#ff0078"> TALES are second hand but the generalprologue is original and the STYLE belongs to Chaucer himself. The prologue is a portrait gallery which gives very close and insightful pictures from the life and activities of the people from every step of life. Canterbury is a city in the southeast of England, dominated by its huge cathedral. The shrine of Saint Thomas a Becket is in the same cathedral where people go on PILGRIMAGE. Chaucer took his pilgrims to the sameplace in 14th century. He arranged a storytelling contest among the pilgrims on their round trip and collected their STYLE="font-style:inherit;color:#ff0078"> TALES which are kept as treasures for today.
