    When Chaucer wrote The Canterbury Tales, he chose to have the inner nature revealed by the outer appearance. By doing so it seems to describe his traveler's appearances in what appears to be a mere physical sketch. Close reading shows that he has cleverly selected details that give us shrewd psychological portraits as well. During Chaucer religious journeys he meets twenty-nine other pilgrims also bound for Canterbury. As the Prologue progresses and we are introduced to pilgrims, Chaucer's brill...

  • The Clerk Tale Biblical Paradox
    1,311 words
    To formulate any type of argument using the Bible as a reference is challenging, since the Bible is diversely perceived from person to person. These varied perceptions can be results of different translations of the Bible, the cultural background of the reader, or quite simply, a vagueness with which the Bible can lend itself to multiple interpretations. Nevertheless, there are certain topics which are void of much gray area, which are explicitly and consistently outlined by the authors of the v...

    A limen is, of course, literally a threshold. A pilgrimage centre, from the standpoint of the believing actor, also represents a threshold, a place and moment in and out of time, and such an actor - as the evidence of many pilgrims of many religions attests - hopes to have there direct experience of the sacred, invisible or supernatural order, either in the material aspect of miraculous healing or in the immaterial aspect of inward transformation of spirit or personality. Turner discovered that ...

    Bradford and Morton I have lived my entire life here in New Hampshire and upon my thinking about it, I am amazed that I live so close to history. I am but two hours away from a controversy that occurred four hundred years ago. And it is from this beginning that the great United States of America grew. I laugh out loud; is this not true. Our founding fathers were nothing more than a few ambitious sinners with their own dreams and desires, not much different than the generations today. The pilgrim...

  • Canterbury Tales Fourteenth Century
    959 words
    A person can almost wholly learn the history of the world though literature that has been written. This is because the people and times have such a great influence on the writers and their work. Authors did not simply grab ideas from the sky. These ideas came from their mind; they wrote about what they knew. And what they knew is what surrounds them, whether it be war, peace, or a time of transition. In the early centuries, religion ruled the land and people. The first rulers came about from the...
