Book Description
This work tells the story of 30 pilgrims who meet by chance at the Tabard Inn in Southwark, London, and journey together to the shrine of St Thomas Becket in Canterbury cathedral. To pass the time along the way, they tell stories to one another, shot through with cunning wit and dry humour.
About this book: Geoffey Chaucer (c.1340-1400) was one of the finest storytellers in the English language, as well as being a great poet and an accomplished prose writer. The Canterbury Tales, although incomplete at the time of Chaucer's death, is generally regarded as his greatest work. The Canterbury Tales tells the story of 30 pilgrims who meet by chance at the Tabard Inn in Southwark, London and journey together to the shrine of St. Thomas Becket in Canterbury cathedral. To pass the time along the way, they tell stories to one another. The Tales themselves range from the exemplary saints' lives told by the nuns, to the bawdy, comic tales of the miller and the reeve, always shot through with Chaucer's cunning wit and dry humour. Chaucer leaves his readers with the impression that the whole of medieval society has passed before their eyes. This new transcription and edition is taken from British Library MS Harley 7334, a beautifully decorated, volume produced within ten years of Chaucer's death. The aim of the present edition, with its 'on-page' notes and glosses, is to enable readers with little or no previous experience of medieval English to read and enjoy this landmark in English Literature.

Middle Age
评分Providing a panoramic picture of his time through describing the characters of all strata.
评分我這個腦子明明是背過從安格魯撒剋遜到伊麗莎白二世的曆史 咋忘瞭這些讀過的東西 甚至背過的也都忘記瞭。
评分寫得還是不錯的，但中古英語讀得蛋疼啊....五個多小時看瞭兩個tales和intro，眼睛都瞎瞭
评分自己看沒看懂，跟著老師一起讀纔體會到其中精妙之處。隻讀瞭一部分，還沒讀完，也是真的不太好讀。喬叟不愧是大師，能在這麼嚴格的韻律要求下寫故事，真的很瞭不起！要想領悟更多還得再努力！
