Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Selections From Chaucer´s Minor Poems: With Introductions, Notes, and a Glossary The text of the various poems in this book is based on the valuable parallel texts of Chaucer´s Minor Poems, printed by the Chaucer Society from old manuscripts and Caxton´s and Thynne´s early printed editions of the poet´s works. Each poem, for the most part, follows one of the authorities published by the Chaucer Society; but, wherever this is defective, corrupt, or evidently inferior, readings from the other authorities have been adopted. Most of the variations from the text of the authority chiefly followed (the orthographical changes below referred to and corrections of obvious scriptorial errors in the MSS. being excepted), and the more important ´various readings´ among the other authorities, are indicated in the foot-notes, which, it is hoped, may be of service in providing the student with opportunities for the exercise of his own judgment on the relative claims of readings on grounds of grammar, logic, or rhythm. It has of course been necessary to punctuate the text. There is practically no punctuation in the MSS. authorities, and the early printed editions show little more than an occasional full stop.
