Secret Agent: A Simple Tale (Everyman's Library)

<p>This edition of the Canterbury Tales, complete and unabridged, was specially prepared for Everyman's Library by Professor A. C. Cawley. Since its first publication in 1958 it has been acclaimed by critics throughout the English-speaking world, and has become a standard textbook among students everywhere. The text is not modernized; it is based partly on that of the Ellesmere manuscript, an early fifteenth-century copy of all the ten separate fragments in which Chaucer left the Tales at his death in 1400. This beautifully decorated volume, now in the Huntington Library, California, is the work of the very best professional copyists of the immediate pre-printing era, and is therefore of the highest textual authority. Professor Cawley provides marginal glosses and footnotes, which enable readers unfamiliar with Middle English to understand even the most difficult passages without having to turn the page in search of explanatory material.</p>

Literary

Webster's edition of this classic is organized to expose the reader to a maximum number of synonyms and antonyms for difficult and often ambiguous English words that are encountered in other works of literature, conversation, or academic examinations. Extremely rare or idiosyncratic words and expressions are given lower priority in the notes compared to words which are ¿difficult, and often encountered¿ in examinations. Rather than supply a single synonym, many are  provided for a variety of meanings, allowing readers to better grasp the ambiguity of the English language, and avoid using the notes as a pure crutch. Having the reader decipher a word's meaning within context serves to improve vocabulary retention and understanding. Each page covers words not already highlighted on previous pages. If a difficult word is not noted on a page, chances are that it has been highlighted on a previous page. A more complete thesaurus is supplied at the end of the book; synonyms and antonyms are extracted from Webster's Online Dictionary.
