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.

評分於2017年01月13日讀完。 一個14世紀的故事係列,多用詩歌講述,少數幾個故事使用散文寫成。故事多世俗,多關於男女之事,有些地方寫的比較直接。 比較有意思的段落如下。 “對於上帝的或者妻子的秘密,做丈夫的不應該感到好奇。隻要他看到上帝賜給他的...
