Описание: The Canterbury Tales is among the earliest of the great narrative poems written in the English language. Its author, Geoffrey Chaucer (c.1340 1400), penned his masterpiece in a vernacular that was the standard dialect in the southeast of England during his lifetime a language of rich vitality, but also very different from the English we speak today. This useful volume, updated with an enlightening new introduction by Andrew Galloway, presents readers with the vigor, liveliness, and humor of Chaucer s original Middle English poetry, interspersed line-by-line with Professor Vincent Hopper s modern, graceful, and easy-to-understand translation. This new edition also features four more of Chaucer's narratives, newly translated by Professor Galloway. The Canterbury Tales is a set of stories that a diverse group of travelers tell to one another at the end of each day. They had set off by foot on a religious pilgrimage from the Tabard Inn in London to the shrine of St. Thomas Becket in England s cathedral town of Canterbury. This volume opens with Chaucer s own famous Prologue, and then presents the best among those many tales, which demonstrate Chaucer s skill in portraying a wide range of very different personalities. For instance, we meet the religiously pious but haughty Prioress, the comically bawdy Miller, and the genially earthy Wife of Bath, among many others. Through it all, we are treated to Chaucer s own voice, which is worldly wise, often ironic, sometimes self-deprecating, and always good-natured. Here in a newly updated edition is an attractive and approachable textbook for students of English literature. It s also a richly entertaining volume for the enlightened general reader This new edition gives today s readers an awareness as never before that The Canterbury Tales is one of the great masterpieces of world literature.
Continues to offer the benefits of the previous critically acclaimed edition by presenting the original Middle English of Chaucer s poetry with an elegant, direct, line-by-line and often word-by-word translation. This format gives students and general readers immediate appreciation of Chaucer s last and greatest narrative poem.
Features a new set of up-to-date notes and resources for further study.
Four additional key narratives newly translated from Chaucer s original text respond to the modern reader s willingness to explore The Canterbury Tales brilliantly experimental approach to storytelling.
Includes a stimulating new introduction that encourages modern readers to embrace various difficult-to-understand Chaucerian turns of phrase so that they can fully appreciate the fine artistry of Chaucer s poetic style.

Описание: While Geoffrey Chaucer composed several magnificent works of poetry, his reputation as "the father of English literature" rests mainly on The Canterbury Tales, a group of stories told by assorted pilgrims en route to the shrine of Thomas Becket in Canterbury Cathedral. From the mirthful and bawdy to the profoundly moral, the tales, taken in their entirety, reflect not only the manners and mores of medieval England, but indeed, the full comic and tragic dimensions of the human condition. Considered the greatest collection of narrative poems in English literature, The Canterbury Tales was composed in the Middle English of Chaucer's day, possibly to be read aloud at the court of Richard II. However, their grandeur, humor, and relevance are timeless, as readers of this authoritative edition will discover.
