PREFATORY NOTE
This is a selected, not a complete bibliography, prepared for the use of

undergraduate students of Chaucer's works. It is a revision and enlarge-
ment of Chaucer: Outlines and References, published by the late Associate
Professor Jewett in 1896. The books and essays on the list have been chosen
with the following purposes: (1) to introduce students to the life and the
ideals of the Middle Ages; (2) to illustrate varied sides of the history of
Chaucer criticism; (3) to present the most recent criticism in regard to the
dates and the sources of Chaucer's works; and (4) to suggest Chaucer's vital
relationship to Continental literature of the Middle Ages and to later English
literature. The advanced student has the privilege of turning to Miss Eleanor
P. Hammond's invaluable work, Chaucer, A Bibliographical Manual.
In conclusion it seems fitting to quote from Miss Jewett 's own preface to
the Outlines and References which have guided many grateful students on
their way.
"In presenting to a Chaucer class even a brief bibliography, one is
tempted to offer an apology both to the poet who, though so reverent to
'olde bokes,' was so superior to footnote and index, and to the student whose
path may seem to be incongruously cumbered. It is perhaps not superfluous
to suggest to the beginner that the way into Chaucer's garden of beauty is by
the bright road of his own verse."

Table of Sounds.
Students should remember that the sounds of Middle English vowels
are very unlike those of Modern English. In pronouncing the vowels it is
well to imitate the Roman pronunciation of Latin. Modern German is also
a good guide, but Afedern French is misleading, since Chaucer heard and
spoke and wrote Old French, which differs considerably from Modern French.
The following examples of Chaucerian words are taken from the first one hun-
dred and sixty lines of the Prologue to the Canterbury Tales..
Mod. E., Modem English; L., Latin; C, Chnucer.
Vowels
a = Mod. E. father, calm, L. mater, sonare, C. bathed, smale.
a = Mod. E. as, than, L. campum, ab, C. whan, hath,
e = Mod. E. gre>'. L. rerum, spes, C swete, slepen.
ee = always long e.
e = Mod. E. get, men, L. esse, sed, C. engendred, hem.
e final = like a in idea. C. ende, corage.
^ (e with a hook) represents open long e, pronounced
like Mod. E. e in there, C. ther.
Students will no; be expected to distijigish between close long e and open
long e, or between close long o and open long o, since the distinctions are per-
plexing to persons unacquainted with Old English. Advanced students
should consult the bibliography above.
e = is always sounded at the end of a word, except C. droght (e) of, veyn {e)
when it precedes another vowel or silent h. in, statur{e) he.
1, y = Mod. E. machine, h.fidus, miles, C. I, inspired, prioresse,
ryde.
I y « Mod. E. this, in, L. impius, ille, C. bifil, yronne.

i « in ioun or ion is always a separate syllable i'Oun C. condicioun.

here the usage of today. nonne.
o before gho. o +

o (o with a hook) represents open long o pronounced
like in Mod. E. lord. C. spoken.
See under e.
u = Mod. E. curious. French u and German ue. [lis occurs in words of

French origin, C. vertu, nature.
u= Mod. E. rule when not in French words. C. frutes.
u= Mod. E. full, L. dux, sub, C. ful, fustian.
w = sometimes written for m; C narw, sorw.
but w in a narwe, sorwe.
Diphthongs
ai Mod. E. straight. C. faire.

ay Mod. E. stay. C. day.
•
The same sound.

ow
= Mod. E. group, you. C. flour, cours, kowthe, foules, how, now.
ou _ sometimes ou in soul, or slow. Here one must be guided by the

ow Modern English pronunciation. C. knowe, trowe, growen.
Consonants
The consonants are pronounced as in Modern English. The following

suggestions should be noted.
ch = Mod. E. church, rich, never like Modern French ch, a sound which de-
veloped after the fourteenth century. C. March, swich, cheere, chari-
table, pynched, chivalrie.
g before e or * = Mod. E. gem, ginger, lineage, never like Modern French g,

a sound which developed after the fourteenth century. C. engendred,

1=always pronounced. C. folk, palmeres.
r=should be strongly trilled.

Note: Students should read first the poem to be studied, then the critical

are placed at the head of the lists because they help students to gain quickly a
general knowledge of the position of Chaucer criticism, today, in regard to
dates, sources, and special problems.
The Romaunt of the Rose

The French Roman de la Rose consists of 22,074 verses; Guillaume de
Lorris was the author of verses 1-4070; Jean de Meun, the author of verses
4071-22,074.
The Middle English translation is now regarded as consisting of three
fragments:
A = verses 1-1705, probably by Chaucer.
B = verses 1706-5810, authorship very doubtful.
C = verses 5811-7696, perhaps by Chaucer.
