Okay, my Z post is a highlight of all my post...Chaucer from A-Z. Whew! I made it! Before I finish with my last post I wanted to give you a brief background into the versions that I read of Chaucer's Canterbury Tales. There are different translations, versions etc... but I thought It was important to share with you the version that allowed me to really enjoy these tales.The version I read was Geoffrey Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales from the Modern Library ,Random House, Inc. (2008). In addition, I referenced various lines from the tales from Canterburytales.org. That particular website has both middle english and modern english versions. And don't forget about the mobile apps I featured. Like I said, those let you can take Chaucer on the go!
Now onto the A-Z overview! Our resident host, Harry Bailey, who helped kick-start the tales. Funny how the host didn't contribute his own tale, but sure knew how to critique them, huh? If you missed general prologue or introduction of Harry Bailey, check out my post here!
Remember, the winner of the tale telling was set to win a free meal-- or something like that. And now...of all the tales I've blogged about...which was on your favorite?
