The Riverside Chaucer, edited by Larry D. Benson established itself as the definitive edition when it was first published in 1987; other editions published since then have generally adopted its numbering system or at least inc orp or ated it alongside their own, so readers using other more recent editions should still not have too much problem in locating citations. -- Oxford Guides to Chaucer: The Canterbury Tales, 3rd edition, Helen Cooper.
This is THE Chaucer book, it has everything plus helpful comments and annotations. I wish I had the time to read it front to back, but for now I only had the time to read some of the Tales and the Romaunt of the Rose.
For our philology course of this semester we have read the Canterbury Tales in Middle English. With a little (or a lot of) help of the footnotes, the glossary, and lots more this book offers and of course the lectures and tutorials we did actually manage to read and understand it. I must say that I immensely enjoyed learning more about the Canterbury Tales this way, to know the backgrounds, the history and culture. So so interesting! more
