THE CANTERBURY TALES gathers twenty-nine of literature's most enduring (and endearing) characters in a vivid group portrait that captures the full spectrum of medieval society.

Lively, absorbing, often outrageously funny, Chaucer's THE CANTERBURY TALES is a work of genius, an undisputed classic that has held a special appeal for each generation of readers. THE TALES gathers twenty-nine of literature's most enduring (and endearing) characters in a vivid group portrait that captures the full spectrum of medieval society, from the exalted Knight to the humble Plowman.This new edition includes a comprehensive introduction that summarizes some of the most important historical events and movements that defined the world of Chaucer and his pilgrims; two additional tales (Reeve's and Shipman's); introductions for each tale designed to prepare the reader for a better understanding and enjoyment of the tale; newly written and conveniently placed explanatory notes; and a new, more easily understood system for learning to pronounce Chaucerian Middle English.

Canterbury Tales

The Canterbury Tales by Geoffrey Chaucer 1999 The Folio Society w/Slipcase New 
In The Canterbury Tales Chaucer created one of the great touchstones of English literature, a masterly collection of chivalric romances, moral allegories and low farce. A story-telling competition between a group of pilgrims from all walks of life is the occasion for a series of tales that range from the Knight’s account of courtly love and the ebullient Wife of Bath’s Arthurian legend, to the ribald anecdotes of the Miller and the Cook. Rich and diverse, The Canterbury Tales offer us an unrivalled glimpse into the life and mind of medieval England.

History

The Canterbury Tales by Geoffrey Chaucer 1999 The Folio Society

Barbara Cohen

Please see the photo of the contents page for which stories this edition includes. Has illustrated endpapers and, in addition to the one pictured as an example of the style, nine full page color illustrations throughout the four stories. Dust jacket has a slightly used look (according to the inside the book appears to be from 1988) but the pages are pristine - clean and unbent - and the binding is excellent. Let me know if I can answer any other questions; I'm happy to!

A vigorous treatment of The Nun's Priest's Tale, The Pardoner's Tale, The Wife of Bath's Tale, and The Franklin's Tale. "This carefully researched and lively edition...is richly and beautifully produced....One could not ask for a more enticing introduction to Chaucer's world." -- Publishers Weekly.

Very rare edition of Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales. Spine is in excellent condition - very hard to find these days! Missing dust jacket (those are almost impossible to find now unfortunately). Discoloring on tops of pages and cover, but illustrations are beautiful and still vibrant. Priced very fairly!! If restored this could bring hundreds of dollars!!!!  Will take offers
