Geoffrey Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales — written in the late fourteenth century — is the founding monument of English literature. The pilgrims’ tales range from bawdy fabliaux and courtly romance to moral allegory and spiritual meditation, together forming an unmatched portrait of medieval English society.
This edition presents the Tales in accessible modernised spelling alongside a selection of Chaucer’s shorter poems. The free EPUB is cleanly formatted with verse line breaks preserved throughout, making Chaucer’s language easier to follow than ever.
