Just enjoyed my guest lecture at @gcu in #ENG381 Writing for PR & Advertising ~ inquisitive learners engaged my pairwork #CrisisComms activities: #Courage & #Collaboration were my two #education takeaways ❤️ ...I’ve missed teaching 😅
Or could it refer to works such as Anelida and Arcite that he may not have wanted to mention again? (2/2) #eng381

#eng381 the entire retraction makes chaucer seem like he was in the wrong for writing about other gods so much
For how edgy Chaucer seemed to be for his time, I'm surprised he would fear judgment from God in the afterlife. What a wimp #eng381

"To tell yow of false Demophon. / In love a falser herde I never non, / But if it were his fader Theseus." (2398-2400) (1/2) #eng381
Felt like these two legends definitely magnified the double standard of "trouthe" presented by Green. #eng381
Comparing women to flowers is a common thread throughout the legends, and it harkens back to the daisy in the prologue #eng381
Interestingly, Demophon's falseness is attributed to his father Theseus' ways. Does this emphasize how bad he is or remove blame? #eng381
