The Riverside Chaucer

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.
