Book Details
Edition Notes
At head of title: Supplementary Canterbury tales. 1.
Issued in two parts, 1876-87; includes notes by F. J. Vipan.
A continuation of the Canterbury tales, "obviously by a later hand," first printed by Urry in the 1721 Chaucer, as the "Merchant's second tale," and included in several later editions; but from the first generally regarded as spurious. The tale is identical with the first part of a French prose romance: L'histoire du chavalier Berinus. The English abstract of the original has title: The merchant and the rogues. It is a free translation from the abstract by Bricaire de la Dixmerie in "Mélanges tirés d'une grande bibliothèque," Paris, t. VIII, p. 225-227.
Reissued in 1909 with new t.-p. as Extra series, no. 5. Early English Text Society.
