| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this research is to make a computer-assisted comprehensive textual comparison among the Hengwrt (Hg) and Ellesmere (El) Manuscripts of The Canterbury Tales by Geoffrey Chaucer and their two edited texts, Blake (1980) which is faithfully reconstructed from Hg, and Benson (1987) which is based on El. This is expected to contribute a great deal to the text criticism of Chaucer. Since Mooney (2004) pointed out the candidate scribe of the Hg and El, Adam Pynkhurst, the description and discovery of the linguistic features of these two manuscripts have caught much attention of Chaucerian and medieval scholars. Our collation concordance will be able to offer data of the first class importance in this international scholarly tendency.
We have made the comparative concordance of the four texts, Hg, El, Blake and Benson as regards 'The Cook's Tale' , 'The Wife of Bath's Prologue and Tale', 'The Friar's Tale' and 'The Summoner's Tale'.
Our concordance is compiled on the basis of Stubbs (2000) and the relating data she offered to us. This is produced as part of our international project. This is a sequel to the concordances-Jimura, Nakao, Matsuo, Blake, and Stubbs (2002), Nakao, et. al. (2004) and (2006). It is sincerely hoped that our present report will be useful for developing Chaucerian and medieval textual and linguistic studies.
