The Canterbury Tales: the Tale of Melibee.
Single leaf 292 r/v. Westminster: William Caxton 1476-1477. Single leaf 292 r/v 242 x 163 mm printed on both sides with a single rubricated initial. Bull's Head watermark clearly visible in the center of the leaf when held against light. Not trimmed close to the text as our previous copy and virtually all known fragments. Sympathetically cleaned and matted. § A landmark in the history of English literature and in the history of printing being a single leaf from Chaucer's Tale of Melibee from the Canterbury Tales the second tale told by Chaucer himself as the host of the inn in which the pilgrims lodge. This particular leaf is significant as it includes a Biblical citation which may be the first appearance in English of the proverb "Greed i.e. money is the root of all harms i.e. evil". "For according to the saying of the word of the Apostle `Greed is root of all harms.' And therefore it were better for you to lose so much wealth of your own than to take their wealth in this manner for better it is to lose wealth with honor than it is to acquire wealth with villainy and shame."“Caxton was both the first to print a book in English and the first English printer. He realized the commercial potential of the new technology while working as a merchant in the Low Countries and Germany birthplace of printing in Europe. Around 1475 Caxton set up his own printing press in London. Among his earliest books are two magnificent editions of the 14th-century classic Chaucer’s ‘Canterbury Tales’: the first published in 1476 AND THUS THE FIRST BOOK PRINTED IN ENGLAND IN ENGLISH and the second illustrated with woodblock prints in 1483.†British Library.See: ic00431000. 9 essentially complete If sometimes made-up copies and 5 substantial but incomplete copies are listed by location along with 24 single leaves or groups of a very few 2-8 leaves. The copy listed as owned by Norman Strouse was later sold to Bernard M. Rosenthal from whom we bought it in 2014 and sold it to the St. Louis Mercantile Library. It was the last leaf to be sold in the trade to our knowledge and like most leaves but not this one was trimmed at the top touching the text. Even the Doheny fragments were trimmed touching the text at the top. The Caxton Club issued a book about Caxton and 148 copies included an original leaf. William Caxton unknown books

Sticker on rear wrapper front wrapper very faintly creased light smudges to page ridges. 2005 Trade Paperback. vi 348 pp. "Readers of this witty and fluent new translation of The Canterbury Tales should find themselves turning page after page: by recasting Chaucer's ten-syllable couplets into eight-syllable lines Joseph Glaser achieves a lighter more rapid cadence than other translators a four-beat rhythm well-established in the English poetic tradition up to Chaucer's time. Glaser's shortened lines make compelling reading and mirror the elegance and variety of Chaucer's verse to a degree rarely met by translations that copy Chaucer beat for beat. Moreover this translation's full Chaucerian range of diction--from earthy to Latinate--conveys the great scope of Chaucer's interests and effects. The selection features complete translations of the majority of the stories including all of the more familiar tales and narrative links along with abridgments or summaries of the others. To reflect Chaucer's interest in poetic technique Glaser presents the tales written in non-couplet stanzas in their original forms. An Introduction marginal glosses bibliography and notes are also included. Hackett Publishing Company, Inc paperback books

Canterbury Tales The Franklin Library
Pennsylvania: The Franklin Library 1981. Hard Cover. Near Fine/No Jacket. Caxton William. Near fine. 1981 Hard Cover. 618 pp. Green cloth boards with gilt decor and gilt edges. Decorative endpapers. "The Canterbury Tales Middle English: Tales of Caunterbury2 is a collection of 24 stories that runs to over 17000 lines written in Middle English by Geoffrey Chaucer between 1387 and 1400.3 In 1386 Chaucer became Controller of Customs and Justice of the Peace and in 1389 Clerk of the King's Works.4 It was during these years that Chaucer began working on his most famous text The Canterbury Tales. The tales mostly written in verse although some are in prose are presented as part of a story-telling contest by a group of pilgrims as they travel together from London to Canterbury to visit the shrine of Saint Thomas Becket at Canterbury Cathedral. The prize for this contest is a free meal at the Tabard Inn at Southwark on their return. After a long list of works written earlier in his career including Troilus and Criseyde House of Fame and Parliament of Fowls The Canterbury Tales is near-unanimously seen as Chaucer's magnum opus. He uses the tales and descriptions of its characters to paint an ironic and critical portrait of English society at the time and particularly of the Church. Chaucer's use of such a wide range of classes and types of people was without precedent in English. Although the characters are fictional they still offer a variety of insights into customs and practices of the time. Often such insight leads to a variety of discussions and disagreements among people in the 14th century. For example although various social classes are represented in these stories and all of the pilgrims are on a spiritual quest it is apparent that they are more concerned with worldly things than spiritual. Structurally the collection resembles Boccaccio's Decameron which Chaucer may have read during his first diplomatic mission to Italy in 1372. It has been suggested that the greatest contribution of The Canterbury Tales to English literature was the popularisation of the English vernacular in mainstream literature as opposed to French Italian or Latin. English had however been used as a literary language centuries before Chaucer's time and several of Chaucer's contemporaries The Franklin Library hardcover books
