The Prologue starts out at the end of April. Therefore it’s spring time. Springtime is when people want to go on a pilgrimage. Which is when travelers from England make a quest to Canterbury Cathedral for help. The narrator is staying at a tavern while he is preparing for pilgrimage. The Prologue basically explains a pardner that sells pardons to people for their sins, but these people are kind of fooled by what the pardner is actually doing.
In the Prologue, it explains that a Pardner sells pardons to people for their sins. These people are fooled in reality and don’t exactly know it. The story starts out as seeing 3 drunken guys just drinking in the morning at like 9. Total troublemakers. This story is how the 3 brother’s friend gets killed. The brothers think that this thing called death is a person and they try to kill it. More towards the end of the story they try to turn against each other, but they find out that obviously death is a thing , not a person.
The Wife of Bath’s Tale is a story that explains what women want. This story is the most funny and humorous story in my opinion. In this story, a knight who isn’t really a good knight rapes a girl and gets sent to the court. The queen then sends the knight on a quest. The quest is to go out in the world and find out what women most desire. He has 12 months and a day to decide what women most want.
