“The Canterbury Tales,” written by Geoffrey Chaucer in the late 14th century, is a seminal work in English literature that showcases the diverse voices and perspectives of medieval England. The narrative is framed within a pilgrimage to the shrine of Thomas Becket in Canterbury, where a group of pilgrims from various social classes and backgrounds come together. Chaucer ingeniously uses this journey as a backdrop to present a collection of stories told by the pilgrims themselves. Each tale reflects the storyteller’s personality, social status, and worldview, providing a rich tapestry of medieval life, morality, and satire.
