The Middle English in which they were first written differs sufficiently from modern English, in vocabulary and usage, that most of us require a contemporary translation. On this recording the "General prologue" and "The physician's tale" are read in Middle English by Richard Bebb, under the direction of a leading Chaucerian scholar, Professor Derek Brewer. It is an authoritative performance that brilliantly evokes the fourteenth-century world, both for the general reader and the student alike. This is followed by a witty modern verse translation, and provides a fascinating contrast with the original. 650 0 $a Christian pilgrims and pilgrimages $v Poetry. 651 0 $a Canterbury (England) $v Poetry. 650 0 $a Storytelling $v Poetry. 655 0 $a Audiobooks. 700 1 $a Bebb, Richard. 700 1 $a Maloney, Michael, $d 1957- 700 12 $a Chaucer, Geoffrey, $d d. 1400. $t Canterbury tales. $p Prologue. 856 40 $u http://wilbor.lib.overdrive.com/ContentDetails.htm?ID=106006ED-C767-4C84-9B02-13EBB6AB2980 856 4 $3 Excerpt $u http://excerpts.contentreserve.com/FormatType-25/0992-1/094454-TheGeneralPrologueThePhysicians.wma 856 4 $3 Excerpt $u http://excerpts.contentreserve.com/FormatType-425/0992-1/094454-TheGeneralPrologueThePhysicians.mp3 941 $a 1 952 $l GUPF501 $d 20110902011115.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=13963892D52911E08DF8BCE26AFF544E 994 $a C0 $b JINInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
