The Canterbury Tales (Barnes & Noble Classics Series) is a collection of stories by Geoffrey Chaucer set within a frame narrative of a group of pilgrims traveling to Canterbury Cathedral. This edition of the classic work, which includes scholarly introductions and notes, presents a cross-section of medieval society through tales that are by turns bawdy, heroic, romantic, and moralistic. The stories reveal the characters' personalities and offer a vivid glimpse into the life and mind of medieval England, with tales ranging from chivalric romance to moral allegory and farce.
