CANTERBURY TALES PROJECT

The Canterbury Tales Project aims to transcribe, collate, and edit the 88 fifteen-century witnesses of the text. We have pioneered the use of digital tools for the analysis and presentation of textual data.

EDITIONS

In July 2026, the project released three editions on a new site, The Book of the Tales of Canterbury, and made them freely available to all. Each of the new editions contains not only the images, transcriptions, and collations of all the fifteenth-century witnesses of the Tales, but also critical editions of the different sections. Currently available:

​

Below are some of our previous editions. The CantApp, released in February 2020, had more than 50.000 downloads.
