An Online Compendium and Companion
to Chaucer's Canterbury Tales
WHAT'S NEW?
Chaucer's
"Orphan" Pilgrims
 Which pilgrims in the General
Prologue do not get to tell a tale? What kind of tale might they have told?
1. In Middle English
The General
Prologue at the University of Virginia's Electronic
Text Center (from Robinson 1957).
The General
Prologue at the University of Michigan's Corpus of Middle English Verse and Prose
(from Robinson 1957).
2. In Modern English Translation
3. Historical & Cultural Backgrounds
Guilds were an integral part of medieval society, both in towns and in the
countryside. Peruse Medieval
English Towns, Stephen Alsford's excellent site for more information about all aspects
of town culture.
4. Sources, Analogues, & Related Texts
5. Online Notes & Commentary
6. Online Articles & Books
Brian
W. Gastle's "Chaucer's "Shaply" Guildsmen and Mercantile Pretensions,"
an e-print of an article from Neuphilologische Mitteilungen, offers a
reading which "turns the portrait into much less a critique of contemporary London politics than a further criticism of the
petty bourgeois pretensions of the five guildsmen."
7. Student Projects & Essays
Anniina Jokkinen's Essays and Articles on Chaucer
includes a number of sample student essays, of varying quality. Like any other
source, student essays must be evaluated rigorously, cited correctly, and used
responsibly.
