"The Manciple's Tale" is part of Geoffrey Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales. It tends to appear near the end of most manuscripts of the poem, and the prologue to the final tale, "The Parson's Tale", makes it clear it was intended as the penultimate story in the collection. The Manciple, a purchasing agent for a law court, tells a fable about Phoebus Apollo and his pet crow, which is both an etiological myth explaining the crow's black feathers, and a moralistic injunction against gossip.

  • Il racconto dello spenditore o dell'economo (The Manciple's Tale) è una novella tratta da I racconti di Canterbury di Geoffrey Chaucer, contenuto nel frammento IX (H), ed ha per tema la favola dell'uccello ciarliero, originata in Oriente e diffusa poi in Europa, in primo luogo attraverso le Metamorfosi di Ovidio. La sua data di composizione è incerta, ma si tende a collocarlo fra le prime composizioni della serie di Canterbury. (it)
