Description
Unravels the complex interplay of the realistic, the grotesque, and the sublime, and discusses the multiplicity of meanings held within narrative and poetic forms. The tales (mostly written in verse, although some are in prose) are presented as part of a story-telling contest by a group of pilgrims as they travel together from London to Canterbury to visit the shrine of Saint Thomas Becket at Canterbury Cathedral. The prize for this contest is a free meal at the Tabard Inn at Southwark on their return.
