"The Man of Law's Tale" is the fifth of the Canterbury Tales by Geoffrey Chaucer, written around 1387. John Gower's "Tale of Constance" in Confessio Amantis tells the same story and may have been a source for Chaucer. Nicholas Trivet's Les chronicles was a source for both authors. Wurtele provides a detailed compilation of the differences between Trivet's Chronicle and the poems of Gower and Chaucer. Gower strove for vividness and shortened the tale in places. Chaucer expanded the tale and emphasizes the holiness of Constance and how she was favoured by heaven.

  • Le Conte du Juriste (The Mannes Tale of Law en moyen anglais) est l'un des Contes de Canterbury de Geoffrey Chaucer. Il constitue l'intégralité du fragment II (B1), couramment placé à la suite du Fragment I (A), soit après le Conte du cuisinier. Le conte qui est censé le suivre est plus difficile à identifier. (fr)
  • Il prologo e il racconto del sergente della legge (The Man of Law's Prologue and Tale) è la quinta novella scritta da Geoffrey Chaucer all'interno de I racconti di Canterbury. L'oste ricorda ai suoi compagni pellegrini di non perdere il loro tempo, perché a differenza del denaro, il tempo non si può recuperare. Chiede allora al Sergente della Legge di raccontare la prossima novella: il pellegrino accetta, scusandosi però di non essere un abile cantastorie e che sicuramente avrebbe narrato una novella già narrata da Chaucer.

Wurtele provides a detailed compilation of the differences between Trivet's Chronicle and the poems of Gower and Chaucer. Gower strove for vividness and shortened the tale in places. Chaucer expanded the tale and emphasizes the holiness of Constance and how she was favoured by heaven. Hagiographic motifs are most abundant in Chaucer's version, e.g. “the miracles God works though Custance and the way she is miraculously fed while at sea”.[22] Wurtele observes that Chaucer makes frequent use of the adjective "hooly" but Gower never uses this word.
