Illuminating Chaucer through Poetry, Manuscript Illuminations, and a Critical Rap Album Tom Liam Lynch
Drawing connections between Chaucer, Eminem, and social issues, New York City high school teacher Tom Liam Lynch helped students become familiar with The Canterbury Tales. Students wrote poems of rhymed couplets about today’s social and political issues, created illuminated manuscripts, and recorded a rap CD. A book and album were published for wider distribution.
