Chaucer\'s Canterbury Tales presented in the Original Middle English version.
The first version of the Tales to be published in print is William Caxton\'s 1478 print editi.
They are a collection of stories written at the end of the 14th century; given mostly in verse, (although a number of them are in prose) they are told as part of a story-telling contest by a group of pilgrims during their travel together on a journey from Southwark to the shrine of Saint Thomas Becket at Canterbury Cathedral.
