{"product_id":"telling-images-9780804776585","title":"Telling Images","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eTelling Images\u003c\/i\u003e investigates certain symbolic traditions in Geoffrey Chaucer's major poetry and their relationship to the visual culture of his time. With more than 150 illustrations, it continues an inquiry begun in the author's prize-winning study, \u003ci\u003eChaucer and the Imagery of Narrative: The First Five Canterbury Tales\u003c\/i\u003e. Here, intensive readings of \u003ci\u003eTroilus and Criseyde\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Legend of Good Women\u003c\/i\u003e, and four more \u003ci\u003eCanterbury Tales\u003c\/i\u003e focus once again on imagery created by narrative itself—not on passing metaphors or similes, but on the images we create in our minds as we imagine the action of a story. Their suggestive likeness to images embedded in yet other texts, realized in illuminated manuscripts and other visual arts of the age, is shown to ground and enrich our reading of these poems.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"V.
