CANTERBURY TALES, THE

Synopsis

These tales are told as part of a story-telling contest by a group of pilgrims as they travel together from Southwark to the shrine of Thomas Becket at Canterbury Cathedral. Chaucer used the tales to depict a critical portrait of the society of his time and particularly the Church.
