Analysis of Chaucer’s “The Wife of Bath’s Prologue and Tale”: How the Tale Fits the Teller
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 5 page paper discussing Chaucer’s “Wife of Bath’s Prologue and Tale”. Chaucer’s “The Wife of Bath’s Prologue and Tale” are very much a part of one another in that the teller of the tale, the Wife, has become very well known to the reader in the autobiographical details told by her in the Prologue. Because of this, the Tale takes on an entirely different meaning than if it had been read alone. The reader learns about the teller in the Prologue in that she is a well experienced woman having been married five times and although she realizes the limitations placed on women in her time, she is eternally hopeful that she will get what all women want, which is explained through the fairy-tale like fictional “Tale”. The sovereignty and love the old woman in the tale eventually gets from her young husband the knight changes the old woman into a beautiful young maiden and they live happily ever after; a prayer the Wife, the teller, wishes for herself in seeking her next husband.
