Tolkien's Lost Chaucer is a groundbreaking exploration that unveils the tale of an unpublished and previously unknown book penned by the renowned author of The Lord of the Rings. Between 1922 and 1928, Tolkien dedicated himself to the Clarendon edition of Selections from Chaucer's Poetry and Prose, although the project remained unfinished. Nonetheless, the 160 pages of commentary within this edition provide a profound insight into Tolkien's evolving thoughts on language and storytelling, as he embarked on his remarkable journey as a fantasy literature pioneer. By drawing upon additional new materials, including his edition of the Reeve's Tale and his Oxford lectures on the Pardoner's Tale, Tolkien's Lost Chaucer sheds light on Chaucer's profound influence on his literary imagination. This captivating book offers a unique window into the creative process of one of the greatest literary minds of all time, shedding new light on the rich tapestry of literary influences that shaped Tolkien's extraordinary works.
