Chaucer scholars have generally settled on April 17, 1387, as the date his pilgrims departed for Canterbury.
據Peter Drucker，他的匠人驕傲地說，自覺"自己在蓋個大教堂"的故事，出自
The Canterbury Tales，可惜我沒 找到出處。
在W. Edwards Deming 的 Out of the Crisis 一書中，有2處引用：
的確，對那些充耳不聞的人說教，徒令自己受人討厭。
──傑弗里·喬叟(Chaucer)《坎特伯里故事集˙梅里白(Melibeus)的故事》

「有一位法學家，是一個傑出的人物，審慎又聰明，經常參加有關法學的討論。他很賢明，能博得眾人的推崇……談吐精闢允當，當過巡迴法庭的審判官，受到皇家的委任，特准裁判所有性質不同的案件。由於他的學識和名望，領受許多酬勞和衣物。自從威廉一世以來，每一件官司的判例他都記得清清楚楚，每一條法令他都能逐字背誦。他所寫下的字據，誰也無法提出責難。他的才能極為高超，一份產業不管它附有何種條件，他總能使它取得絕對的權益，他的契據上，誰也找不出任何漏洞，再也沒有比他更忙碌的人了。」------喬叟·《坎特伯利故事集》

杰弗里‧喬叟《特洛勒斯與克麗西德》（Troilus and Cressida）吳芬譯，北京：中國對外翻譯出版公司，1999。其中的「譯者序」：「……方重先生於50年代將喬叟的絕大多數作品以散文體翻成中文……」（p. XII）。
「時代錯置」（anachronism）這主題相當有趣，可參考錢鍾書《管錐篇（四）》有精彩事例說明（台北：書林版，pp. 1299-1305）
在文學術語上有人給詩人想像力更大的空間，可以有某種時空上的自由應用，稱為「詩的破格」（poetic license）。譬如說，杰弗里‧喬叟在特洛勒斯與克麗西德的「年代誤植」，可以被諒解。此行中的『上帝』即是年代誤植的一例，基督教的出現比特洛亞戰爭晚了一千餘年。（（吳芬譯，北京：中國對外翻譯出版公司，1999，p. 47））」【順便記下一位翻譯者：「……方重先生於50年代將喬叟的絕大多數作品以散文體翻成中文……」（「譯者序」。p. XII）】

In the days before printing, manuscripts were copied by scribes, who introduced changes - either deliberately or accidentally. For a long time, scholars have used the distribution of variations among different extant versions of a text to determine which were copied from the same earlier version and produce a stemma (plural: stemmata), a tree showing these relationships. This is known as stemmatic analysis, and was pioneered by the German scholar Karl Lachmann in the 19th century.
The scribe Jean Mielot (from 'Scribes and Illuminators', C. de Hamel, British Museum Press).
