More about the book

Exploring the intersection of queer theory and medieval literature, this work analyzes the complex relationship between eroticism and anti-eroticism in Chaucer's writings. Pugh delves into themes such as mutual masochism, homosocial bonds, and the portrayal of queer families, revealing how these elements challenge traditional perceptions of Chaucer. By examining the erotic culture of the Middle Ages alongside its religious critiques, the book offers a transformative perspective on the Canterbury Tales and Chaucer's broader oeuvre.
