The book is a critical edition of the Franklin's Tale, one of the Canterbury Tales written by Geoffrey Chaucer. The Franklin's Tale is a story about love, marriage, and the consequences of jealousy. The tale follows the story of a knight named Arveragus and his wife Dorigen, who promises to be faithful to her husband while he is away on a journey. However, when a squire named Aurelius falls in love with Dorigen and asks her to be his lover, she refuses. Aurelius then promises to remove the rocks from the coast of Brittany, which had been preventing ships from entering the harbor, in exchange for her love. Dorigen agrees, thinking that the task is impossible. However, when Aurelius completes the task, Dorigen is forced to choose between her husband and her promise to Aurelius. The book includes critical notes and commentary on the text, as well as a glossary of Middle English words and phrases. Overall, Chaucer's Franklin's Tales is a valuable resource for those interested in the works of Chaucer and the medieval period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
