Six hundred years of Chaucer criticism has §established his reputation as one of England s §greatest poets. However, we must not forget that §Chaucer was also a prose writer, as is demonstrated §in Melibee and the Parson s Tale in the Canterbury §Tales, in Boece, a work of a philosophical nature §and in A Treatise on the Astrolabe, a scientific §text ascribing the use of an astronomical §instrument. The latter was written at a time when §the conception of the Universe was based on the §Ptolemaic model. This Greco-Roman view of the §Universe was shattered when Copernicus s De §Revolutionibus was published in 1543. In Learned §Chaucer, I explore how historical, cultural, §religious, linguistic and scientific changes have §affected the perception of Chaucer and of his §Treatise. I hope to provide an insight into 600 §years of Chaucer criticism.
