- W2067110788 abstract "Charles Cowden Clarke (1787-1877), Charles Knight (1791-1873), and John Saunders (1810-1895) were the most effective boosters of Chaucer's common readership before the university in the mid-1860s took over the care and promotion of Middle English language and literature, includ ing Chaucer.1 All three popularizers came of age in the wake of the French Revolution, which reinforced and magnified whatever nationalist impulses were already at work in nascent pan-European Romanticism. Ideas of a people united by shared culture rather than by allegiance to a king made the invention and promotion of a literary tradition a desideratum for every nation. Thanks especially to J. G. Herder, the nationalism produced by and in reaction to the French Revolution gave language a newly impor tant role in defining the nation and granted exceptional political value to the nation's literary and folk culture for its capacity both to unify and to stimulate continuing negotiation with tradition, essential to the per petuation of the national community.2 In England the Revolution exerted contrary pressures, to reaction or to reform. Those in favor of reform understood that the political class, those with political rights, had to expand. Some asserted literacy as a basic human right.3 In this yeasty atmosphere, Cowden Clarke and Knight came of age; Saunders came to manhood in the run-up to the Reform Bill of 1832. All three identified with the reformist politics of the early decades of the century, when Henry Brougham, later Chancellor, led the parlia mentary committee that aimed to improve mass education in England.4 The three popularizers believed that Chaucer's poetry, like Shakespeare's drama, should belong to all Englishmen. They saw its value in cultivating a natural style, educating the feelings, developing moral judgment, con necting with their English ancestry, and supporting reform. The proto nationalism of Dryden's characterization of the Canterbury pilgrims took on a new value, that of representing an inclusive model of the English polity, a polity in which ordinary folk would increasingly participate as eli gibility to vote broadened. In such a climate of political and social change," @default.
