A selection of the best-loved and most frequently studied of The Canterbury Tales
This collection is the perfect introduction to one of the cornerstones of English literature. The General Prologue provides picturesque character sketches of the colorful band of pilgrims who gather at a London inn on their way to Canterbury. The nine tales chosen range from the noble Knight's story of rivalry in love to the boastful and hypocritical Pardoner's moral treatise, and from the exuberant Wife of Bath's Arthurian legend to the Miller's worldly, ribald farce. Incorporating every type of medieval narrative-bawdy anecdote, allegorical fable, and courtly romance-the tales selected here encompass the blend of universal human themes and individual personal detail that have enthralled readers for more than six hundred years.

评分于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...
评分As the title indicates, l cannot help associating this book with another distinguished tales, Decameron written by Giovanni Boccacci, which tremendously aroused my interest in making a further comparison between the two masterpieces. Despite the appa...
