Writers: Chaucer

Although you may hate Chaucer from your force-feeding of The Canterbury Tales in HS, back in the day he was famous for his love poems. The Geoffrey Chaucer Web Site, maintained by Jane Tolmier et al at Harvard, has the complete text of the tales, along with interlinear translations that juxtapose the original Middle English text with its modern English counterpart, plus background essays on the writer's life and times, and an extensive bibliography. <http://icg.harvard.edu/~chaucer/>
