Troilus
and Criseyde
1. In Middle English
Barry Windeatt's 1984 edition of Troilus
and Criseyde is available from the University of Michigan's Humanities
Text Initiative website (but without the critical apparatus). Fully
searchable and indexed by book in ten-stanza increments, or the
full text in html. Windeatt's
edition is also available from the University of Virginia's E-Text
Archive.
The venerable W. W. Skeat's 1900 edition of Troilus
and Criseyde is available from the Online Medieval & Classical
Library (but without the critical apparatus) (Douglas B. Killings,
Berkeley). Fully searchable and indexed by book.
Project Gutenberg's Middle English text of Troilus
and Criseyde was also prepared by Douglas B. Killings, but lacks line
numbers and critical apparatus. Adaptations of Killing's Project Gutenberg
text are widely available
but these are best avoided in favor of Windeatt, Skeat, and Killing's
OMACL version.
Mark Zimmerman's Encyclopedia Index site offer another version of the
Project Gutenberg Troilus
and Criseyde text, lightly annotated through hypertextual links from
the Encyclopedia of the Self.
2. In Modern English Translation
Michael Murphy continues his project to create a reader-friendly Chaucer
with his two versions (abbreviated
and unabbreviated)
of Troilus
and Criseyde in modern English. Read Murphy's Introduction
for a discussion of his philosophy of translation.
All of Murphy's texts require Adobe
Acrobat Reader, the free .pdf file reader.
Tony Kline's (no relation to the author of this page) modernized
version of Troilus
and Criseyde "aims to provide a readable and accessible modernization of the poem while preserving Chaucer's rhymes and
diction wherever possible, at the same time eliminating all archaic words which would require marginal notes to explain."
In Kline's rendering:
Kline's text, with a few hypertext notes
dealing with historical and cultural figures, is also available for
download.
3. Historical & Cultural Backgrounds
The
Knighthood, Chivalry, & Tournaments Resource Library (Steve
Muhlenberger, John Chamberlain, Leslie Lieder, and Brian R. Price) is a
veritable cornucopia of digital materials related to all forms of the
chivalric life, including resources for re-enactors.
