Canterbury Tales the most popular reading.

I don't know why, but the page containing the prologue to the Canterbury Tales is the most visited page in my world history. Curious. But maybe it was just a single class somewhere or something. Web statistics can be seriously skewed by a single link or such.

But if people do enjoy Chaucer, I have the entire text of the Canterbury Tales online, in the original Middle English too. Part of the ebooks library I've been building up. It's also available in a Classic Mac/Hypercard ebook, available for downloading here.

If you've never heard a computer read Middle English try to view it in a browser that has speech. Classic Mac fans can hear it in any of the old Speech Manager voices.
