Today we shared our Prologue Portrait Poster Projects, which included some really nice examples of Chaucer's characters from the Canterbury Tales.
Here are some important points to ponder:
1) The characters have distinct physical, behavioral and psychological features that distinguish them from others.
2) Chaucer "draws" these characters in complimentary or condemning words. He seems to be highly critical of hypocrisy (the Monk) and highly praising of integrity (the Parson). He doesn't find it necessary to "facebook" them--to only talk about their accomplishments and their positive qualities; he does refer to good points, but he also includes their depravity (Wife of Bath).
For Tuesday Night...
DEADLINE: If you haven't turned in missing/late work, Thursday the 28th is the final deadline. After this point, late work through the 28th will no longer be accepted.
1) Go to the online textbook. Read the Prologue and the Story of the Wife of Bath (183 - 196):
