‎The Works:‎

‎London 1687. The last black letter edition Final Speght edition the last to be printed in black letter and the eighth collected edition overall. This is a reprint of Thomas Speght's 1602 edition with the addition on the verso of the last leaf of the first printings of the conclusions to the Cook's and the Squire's Tales then recently discovered. Thomas Speght d. 1621 developed a passion for Chaucer while studying at Cambridge and maintained this interest well after graduating. He worked on several editions of the complete works the first published in 1598; his notes were more elaborate than in any other previous edition and he was the first to provide a glossary. The present 1687 edition "remained in use even after the publication of John Urry's much reviled Chaucer edition of 1721. Thomas Tyrwhitt editing the Canterbury Tales in the 1770s used the 1602 and 1687 editions of Speght taking the latter as his base text. With a period of influence stretching from the late sixteenth century to the late eighteenth then Speght's Chaucer has been the most durable of any Chaucer edition" ODNB. In this edition the list of "Old and Obscure Words in Chaucer explained" is marked with derivations and a gloss has been added translating the Latin and French "not Englished" by Chaucer. Speght's influential biography of Chaucer also included shaped all future descriptions of the poet's life up until the 1840s and notably established the common belief that he was once fined for beating a Franciscan friar in Fleet Street. The imprint here has no mention of printers as the copyright belonged to the Stationers' Company. Folio bound in fours 320 x 201 mm. Engraved frontispiece portrait of Chaucer and his progeny laid down woodcut arms on a2v part title with large woodcut arms; text printed in double columns black Gothic letter.

Early 19th-century armorial bookplate of one John Gordon engraved by W.

‎<p>Number 183 of 225 copies. Troilus and Criseyde is the first of the three outstanding Golden Golden Cockerel Press editions produced by Robert Gibbings and Eric Gill the others being The Canterbury Tales and the The Four Gospels. The Middle English text was edited by Arundell del Re the compositors were F. Young and A.H. Gibbsand the pressman A.C Cooper.</p><p>Gill's woodcuts include portraits of Chaucer: one depicting him with Cupid whispering in his ear the other shows him writing Troilus. There are four full page illustrations one at the beginning of each book while every page has a tall border facing each other across each opening. In these Gill successfully re-imagined the borders of medieval manuscripts in which the images do more than simply decorate the margins but work in interplay with the text — marking illustrating and commenting with varying degrees of transparency subtlety eroticism and humour. 'They rank very high in the range of Gill's work' Franklin p. 142.</p><p>Small folio 310 × 180 mm pp. xi 1 309 5. Woodcut ornaments by Eric Gill including four full-page illustrations printed in Caslon with black red and blue ink on Kelmscott hand-made paper.
