Customer Reviews
Simply the best there is - Rated If, as has been claimed, The Pardoner's Tale is the best short story ever told, then Winny's expert commentary is an admirable companion to it. Winny sets the tale in historical context and discusses sources as well as Chaucer's poetic devices and literary style. As a result, not only is this matchless tale brought alive but one sees through fresh eyes the genius of the poet telling it. For the first time, I was able to see how Chaucer had carefully fitted each tale to the teller (rather than randomly attribute stories as, for example, Bocaccio did). Only the slimy and sinister Pardoner could have told this tale, and only Chaucer could have put it in his mouth. This Cambridge edition (in fact the whole series) is an excellent window into the poet's work. Chaucer in his original language - Rated A useful single volume of one of Chaucer's Canterbury Tales. Has a useful introduction and a glossary. If you have to study this and are interested in doing a good job, this is an excellent text. proper confusin!!!!! - Rated theyr makin me do this for school but i cant understand a word.the spellin is wack, an like theres all this preachin stuff b4 the story which even when the story u reach which is well slow an borin innit.i think the pardoner was a bad riter an this chaucer dude should have corected his mis-takes. i hope he dont rite no more books cos i ent gonna read em. all in all, it was rubbish. i dont re-comend it.but if u is like posh or swot or summimk, ull like well like it probs innit!!!!!
