  • Abstract: This note focusses on the breadth of the French-speaking area with which Chaucer engaged. ­Chaucer’s friendly literary exchanges with ­contemporary French writers has received expert scrutiny, as well as ­Chaucer’s interest in “Flaundres, in Artoys, and Pycardie” – yet the unprompted interpolation of “Burgoyne” as one of the known ­world’s frontiers in his translation of the Romance of the Rose ­confirms that Chaucer was fascinated with the ­duchy’s growing empire, where picard was the lingua franca.
