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.

讀後感
大一阅读课上初识坎特伯雷故事，只觉得是和十日谈差不多的民间奇谭，一个个小故事古怪生动富有趣味（有的还特别污XD），我索性就去书城买了整本来读。坎特伯雷是一本由中古英语写成的诗体小说，该译本以诗译诗，遵从形式格律，很难想象有人会花许多心思做到这一点。他的译作既...
評分《坎特伯雷故事》全书由二十四个故事与一个总引构成，巴斯妇所讲述的故事格外引人注意，这位结过五次婚的女人一边驳斥要妇女守贞的清规戒律，一边在故事中抛出一个惹人好奇的问题：“女人最大的欲望是什么？”问题的起因来自亚瑟王宫中一位武士，他凭白玷污了一位姑娘而染上罪...
評分相较于薄伽丘的《十日谈》和拉伯雷的《巨人传》，乔叟的《坎特伯雷故事》在精巧性、文学性上都更胜一筹，而我也更能接受这样稍微庄重、细致的文风。 在第一个骑士的故事中，讲了他们中常见的主题——爱情，两个受难王室兄弟同时爱上敌国王室女子，当敌国国王做判决的时候，是让...
評分于2017年01月13日读完。 一个14世纪的故事系列，多用诗歌讲述，少数几个故事使用散文写成。故事多世俗，多关于男女之事，有些地方写的比较直接。 比较有意思的段落如下。 “对于上帝的或者妻子的秘密，做丈夫的不应该感到好奇。只要他看到上帝赐给他的...
