Listen "Episode 32b - The Canterbury Tales, PART TWO"
Episode Synopsis
Two friends and academics recap classic literature and take it off its pedestal. In Part Two of our thirty-second episode, we keep the bawdy scatological humour up in the second half of Geoffrey Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales (1400). It's all farts, penned-in sex-yards, and apologies to Jesus.Cover art © Catherine Wu.Episode theme: Anonymous, 'Weltliche Musik um 1300', performed by the Studio der frühen Musik Hosted on Acast.
