Verlagsinformation :: Publisher's information The CD-ROM incorporates the first-ever full colour facsimile of the "Hengwrt Chaucer manuscript" (National Library of Wales Peniarth 392 D), one of the most important of all English literary manuscripts, together with binding fragments and the leaves of the Merthyr fragment. This CD-ROM joins the images to the transcriptions of the text, collations with the other crucial early manuscript of the "Tales" (the "Ellesmere Chaucer", in the Huntington Library), complete descriptions and analytical discussions to give a full set of materials for studying this important manuscript. Three versions of the Hengwrt Chaucer Digital facsimile are available, as follows:
Each version is designed to serve a particular set of needs. If you wish simply to check the reading of the manuscript at a particular point of the Tales, and would like to see how the manuscript appears at that point, the Online Edition will allow you to do this over the web, quickly and at no cost. If you want to carry out searches on the whole text, to examine the manuscript more closely to check the exact readings at each point, and to have all this on your computer at all times, then the Standard Edition will be appropriate. It is expected that most of those who need this will be students and general readers, and so the edition has been priced to be affordable for that audience, at around the same price as a standard hardback or paperback. If you want to explore the manuscript in the closest possible detail, examining its construction as shown through its quiring, inks, and running heads, researching its differences word-by-word with the Ellesmere manuscript, studying scholarly commentary on all this, together with more sophisticated searching and with access to images which show the smallest detail on the manuscript's surface, then you will need the Research Edition. The following table sets out the differences between the three editions. The differences between the three editions:
