Welcome to another interesting video on History of English Literature. In this video, I am going to take you through the Age of Chaucer.
The Age of Chaucer marked the first significant literary age in English literature. It heralded a new era of learning.
Chaucer’s age also witnessed many social, political, and religious challenges.

There were strong nationalistic passions due to the 100 Years’ War between England and France.

There is a transition from the age of Medievalism to the age of Modernism.

Another significant event of the age was the Black Death or plague that affected a third of the country’s population. 

The age is known for its scathing criticism of the established order and religion.
