The ten volumes of A Complete Concordance to the Works of Geoffrey Chaucer allow students to undertake full and systematic studies of Chaucer's language and text for the first time, and they have great potential as a standard research tool for English medievalists, historians of the language and historians of ideas. They allow syntacticians to see common and "high-frequency" words in all their contexts. The editor takes as the basis for the Concordance the text of The Riverside Chaucer published under the general editorship of Larry D. Benson (Boston 1987, and Oxford 1988) and widely recognized as the standard scholarly edition of Chaucer. This computer-generated Concordance will supersede the Tatlock and Kennedy manually-produced work of 1927, which is based on the now outdated Globe edition. Chaucer's works are here concorded using a KWIC (Key Word In Context) format. The Concordance gives all occurrences of every word in the text, including the common, "high-frequency" words. The last volume provides a comprehensive bird's-eye view of Chaucer's vocabulary, which highlights the Complete Concordance.
