(back cover) The Canterbury Tales is among the earliest of the great narrative poems written in the English language. Geoffrey Chaucer (c.1340-1400), penned his masterpiece in the English widely used in the London area during his lifetime--a language of rich vitality, but also very different from the English we speak today. This volume presents readers with the vigor, liveliness, and humor of Chaucer's original Middle English poetry, interspersed line-by-line with Professor Vincent F. Hopper's modern, graceful, and easy-to-understand translation. It has been expanded and updated in this new edition by medieval scholar Andrew Galloway to include several additional key tales, further notes, and a new introduction. The result is an attractive, approachable, critically praised text for students of English literature. It's also a richly entertaining volume for the general reader.
