This work serves as Thynne's response to the contemporary editing of Geoffrey Chaucer's works, particularly addressing the annotations made by Thomas Speight in his 1598 edition of Chaucer's texts. The book elucidates various issues regarding the accuracy of these annotations and seeks to restore what the author considers rightful interpretations of Chaucer’s writings. The opening portion sets the stage for Thynne's critical analysis by presenting his grievances toward Speight's lack of consultation with him prior to the publication of his edition. Thynne explains the labor of his father, William Thynne, who was a prominent figure in preserving Chaucer's works and who had previously gathered numerous manuscripts for that purpose. Thynne reveals that he feels a responsibility to defend both his father's legacy and Chaucer's integrity by correcting perceived inaccuracies and injustices in Speight’s work. He casts a spotlight on specific tales, particularly the "Pilgrime's Tale," while discussing the historical and social ramifications that these literary works had during his time, highlighting Chaucer's commentary on churchmen and society.
