{"product_id":"the-canterbury-tales-bantam-classics-1","title":"The Canterbury Tales (Bantam Classics)","description":"Lively, absorbing, often outrageously funny, Chaucer’s The Canterbury Tales is a work of genius, an undisputed classic that has held a special appeal for each generation of readers. The Tales gathers twenty-nine of literature’s most enduring (and endearing) characters in a vivid group portrait that captures the full spectrum of medieval society, from the exalted Knight to the humble Plowman.\n\nThis new edition includes a comprehensive introduction that summarizes some of the most important historical events and movements that defined the world of Chaucer and his pilgrims; two additional tales (Reeve’s and Shipman’s); introductions for each tale designed to prepare the reader for a better understanding and enjoyment of the tale; newly written and conveniently placed explanatory notes; and a new, more easily understood system for learning to pronounce Chaucerian Middle English.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0553210823\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0553210823.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:A.
