Does this need to be a separate page? It could also be just a redirect to a section of a Canterbury Tales article. I'm not certain which is better, or if there's a policy guide for this sort of question. Sandy Harris 09:51, 1 June 2010 (UTC)

Hi Sandy. The General Prologue is a distinct part of The Canterbury Tales. What I started here is only a lemma. A lot can be written about this part of The Canterbury Tales. I am planning to do so, and the same can be done with each separate tale. The article will contain a synopsis, a part about date and text, about themes, genre, Chaucer's sources, and so on. Putting all the things I have in mind in the article The Canterbury Tales would make that article far to long. Then someone would probably make the remark to divide it in more manageable pieces. Should there be an objection against this article about the General Prologue, I would appreciate to know about it, because my working on it would then be reasonless.
