One of the great experiences of studying English was the chance to read, re-read, analyse, essay and quote Geoffrey Chaucer's most famous work, The Canterbury Tales.
Being Public Domain works, The Canterbury Tales can be found in many places on the web, but I've yet to see each tale in blog format, a challenge I am going to undertake on this blog.
Each tale will have its own post, divided only into Prologue, Tale and the sole Epilogue (Nun's Priest's Tale).
The challenge will of course be how to link the Tales together into blog format - the front to back format of print going against the reverse chronological format of the blog. Hopefully the use of Blogger's labels (tags) will make it easier to navigate.
Each blog post will include 'The Canterbury Tales' in the title to make it clear to those arriving on specific blog posts what they are looking at.
I'm going to open comments to even anonymous comments at first and then review that policy if the spammers have a field day.
I hope you derive as much enjoyment as I did and do from this incredible work illustrating in such richness life and attitudes in 14th century England.

Does it work on an iphone? Nice, clean layout.
ReplyDeleteYes, in sense you can access the pages from the Safari browser. Have tried it and works OK although obviously you need an internet connection. Given the length of the pages you can access them at home and then read when offline. Not sure you could read more than a tale on an iphone
