Chaucer and the Legend of Good Women
By Philip Gooden
Three years after his secret mission to Aquitaine, poet and diplomat Geoffrey Chaucer finds himself once more embarked on royal business. After an arduous journey in the spring of 1373, he reaches Florence, a city twice the size of London and the banking centre of Europe. Chaucer has come for money for Edward III, who needs a loan to prop up the ongoing English campaign against France.
