The legend of good women by
Geoffrey Chaucer(
Book
)
34 editions published between 1889 and 2012 in 3 languages and held by 1,503 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
This critical edition of the text brings together for the first time full manuscript variants and the results of recent palaeographical and codicological work on the manuscripts. It differs from earlier editions in attempting to identify textual originality from the quality of variant readings, and in giving grounds, in the analysis of variants, for the identification of the likelier derivative variant. The textual apparatus records not only all substantive variants but also morphological and spelling variants where there is potential ambiguity or where the form of a variant would seem to indicate the direction of variation. In their choice and treatment of copy text (Bodleian Library MS Tanner 346) the editors have adhered to the principle that the copy text is to be chosen for the appropriateness of its accidentals, and have maintained the distinction between accidentals and substantive readings which has not often been valued or observed in the editing of Chaucer. In examining the differences between the text of the Prologue to The Legend of Good Women in Cambridge University Library MS Gg. 4.27 and that preserved in the other manuscripts of the poem, the editors address the problem of distinguishing between authorial and scribal variation

The court poetry of Chaucer : a facing-page translation in modern English by
Geoffrey Chaucer(
)
5 editions published in 2007 in English and held by 1,227 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
This work offers facing-page translations of lesser-known poems by Geoffrey Chaucer. The modernization of Chaucer's verse to date has been restricted largely to the longer poems such as The Canterbury Tales and Troilus and Criseyde. While these works demonstrate Chaucer's mastery of the epic and narrative forms, it is in the court poems that we hear what is closer to the actual voice of Chaucer speaking to his contemporaries. The introduction discusses the "complaint," a popular medieval genre that Chaucer often used in his verse, sometimes with a straight face, sometimes not. Providing these
