Opis

Excerpt from The College Chaucer: The Glossary in Collaboration With Thomas Goddard Wright, M.A., Instructor in English in Sheffield Scientific School The College Chaucer aims to provide with due regard to the moderate size attractive page and readable print required in a modern textbook as much of Chaucer as can be given in a single volume. The teacher will find no doubt more than he will choose to read with his class in any one year; but he may welcome the opportunity offered here of varying his course from year to year without change of text, and the possibilities presented of full cross-reference and helpful "outside" readings. In this endeavor to give Chaucer in extenso, the editorial apparatus has been compressed within the smallest possible compass while a glossary of greater than average fullness supplies the place of the usual notes. The Appendix contains only such additional matter as the beginner absolutely needs before attempting to read Middle English. There is very general agreement among teachers that the student learns most by approaching Chaucer not through a text normalized and corrected on an editorial theory as to standard medićval spellings but directly through the actual forms of the early and authoritative manuscripts. The one danger in this plan of confusion in morphology and pronunciation is greatly lessened in this edition by etymologies given in the glossary which supply source-materials for correction of manuscript peculiarities. On the other hand the student has not been relieved of his proper labor by any device of friendly dots or italics. Footnotes are reserved for the indication of necessary variation from manuscript readings. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
