Descriere magazin:
Beyond its importance as a literary work of unvarnished genius, Geoffrey Chaucer\'s unfinished epic poem is also one of the most beloved works in the English language-and for good reason: It is lively, absorbing, perceptive, and outrageously funny. But despite the brilliance of Chaucer\'s work, the continual evolution of our language has rendered his words unfamiliar to many of us. Esteemed poet, translator, and scholar Burton Raffel\'s magnificent new unabridged translation brings Chaucer\'s poetry back to life, ensuring that none of the original\'s wit, wisdom, or humanity is lost to the modern reader.

Chaucer became the first of England\'s great men to be buried in the Poet\'s Corner of Westminster Abbey. Peter G. Beidler is the Lucy G. Moses Distinguished Professor of English at Lehigh University. He is the author of a dozen books and more than 150 articles. In the summer of 2005 he directed a seminar for high school teachers on Chaucer\'s Canterbury Comedies (the seminar was supported by the National Endowment for the Hu
