The Canterbury Tales tells the story of a group of pilgrims who engage in a tale-telling contest. We get to read the interactions between the characters, and the tales they tell each other. There are serious tales, but also very funny ones. We highly recommend this work to anyone with a taste for classic literature.

Slide 8 - Tekstslide

Geoffrey Chaucer wrote The Canterbury Tales in the late 1380s and early 1390s, after his retirement as a civil servant. In his professional life, Chaucer was able to travel from his home in England to France and Italy. There, he had the chance to read Italian and French literature. Some experts claim that he met the famous Italian poet Boccaccio during this period.

Chaucer’s decision to write in English, his mother tongue, rather than in the Latin of so many of his educated colleagues, was something of a risk, and a big break with learned tradition. The risk paid off, as his work became enormously popular. More manuscripts of the tales have survived than of almost any other work of this time period. The Canterbury Tales was still going strong when the fi rst printers made their way to England. William Caxton published the fi rst printed version of the tales in 1476.


retirement = pensioen

literature = literatuur

mother tongue = moedertaal

educated = geleerd

break = breuk

learned = geleerd

enormously = enorm

manuscript = manuscript

to survive =  overleven

Slide 9 - Tekstslide

One of the things that makes The Canterbury Tales fun to read is the great (and often absurd) detail in which the narrator describes each of the pilgrims. We learn, for example, that the cook has a pustule on
his leg that very much resembles one of the desserts he cooks. For many of his portraits, Chaucer relied on a medieval tradition of ‘estates satire’, a collection of stereotypes about people based on what occupation they had or what social class they belonged to.

Since The Canterbury Tales is a story about a storytelling competition, many of the questions it asks are about stories: What makes for a good story? Why do we tell stories? Why should we tell stories? And as the pilgrims tell their stories, they turn out not to be talking about fairy-tale people in far-off lands – they recount the experiences of fl esh-and-blood people.




pustule =  puist

portrait = portret

to rely on = vertrouwen op

collection = verzameling

based on = gebaseerd op

far-off = ver weg

recount = vertellen
