The Canterbury Tales of Geoffrey Chaucer (1343-1400) represent one of the foundations of English literature. For this 1879 entry in the influential “English Men of Letters” series of literary biographies, the distinguished critic Adolphus Ward placed Chaucer’s life and work in the context of his tempestuous times, which included the Black Death.
