The purpose of Chaucer's Church is to provide clear concise and reliable explanations of every term Chaucer uses that has a religious liturgical or ecclesiastical meaning. It uses a dictionary format arranged according to Chaucer's spellings to make information readily accessible for students teachers critics and the general reader. In all cases the entries concentrate on lucid and accurate presentation of the meanings that the terms had or could have had for Chaucer and a fourteenth-century audience. A careful system of cross-references guides the reader to related terms so that individual entries can be further explored in related or larger contexts.
