The Canterbury Tales
Geoffrey Chaucer, Burton Raffel (Traductor), John Miles Foley (Introduction by)
This book is in the December bonus batch. You could win this *and* another book this month. Presented in these pages in a new unabridged translation by the esteemed poet, translator, and scholar Burton Raffel–whose translation of Beowulf has sold more than a million copies–this Modern Library edition also features an Introduction by the well-known and widely influential medievalist and author John Miles Foley that discusses Chaucer’s work as well as to his life and times. It would be impossible to overstate the influence of Geoffrey Chaucer’s The Canterbury Tales. Despite its brilliance, the continual evolution of our language has rendered his words unfamiliar to many of us. A new translation by Burton Raffel, esteemed poet, translator, and scholar, brings Chaucer’s poetry back to life, ensuring that none of the original’s wit, wisdom, or humanity is lost to the modern reader.
