I confess that Chaucer destroyed my ideas about medieval literature (the work was written around 1400). Up to now, I have thought it’s something extremely boring, separate from real life. It has turned out to be really not true.

If, in the text of a published book, you come across both irony and burlesque, you want to start your review of it with a joke. When Geoffrey Chaucer wrote “A Treatise on the Astrolabe” for his son, relying on ancient Arab astronomical clever-cleverness, he did not think that it would be in Lviv publishing house with such an “astronomical” name that his “Canterbury Tales” would be published — for the first time in Ukrainian.

The 5 Most Important Translation Books of 2019 That You May Not Have Noticed
Selection of the literary critic Yevhen Stasinevych

This may seem like a conservative posture, but a similar thesis is rather a statement of fact: perhaps the best translated prose of the year was the translation of the age-old — it’s also “dusty” — classics. Both the words “classics” and “translation” are important here. First, Chaucer is one of the real, not fictional, parents of all subsequent European prose, though he wrote a rough volume of novelettes in verse.

The first Ukrainian translation of the masterpiece by Geoffrey Chaucer, a classic of English literature (c. 1343–1400). This is a collection of stories that pilgrims, who have decided to go on pilgrimage to St. Thomas Beckett’s Tomb in Canterbury, tell each other.

First, it is such a long-awaited and the first in time Ukrainian translation of a masterpiece by Geoffrey Chaucer, a classic of English literature. Maksym Strikha has done such a tremendous amount of work and a translation of such quality (though I scarsely am well-versed in Old English) that one can only bow low before him and wait for his new translations.
