The Comparison's Tale

My group and I read the Wife of Bath's and it had many similarities to the other story we heard in class. First of all, in the other tale we heard Chaucer refer to the Bible and characters in it. Second, Chaucer writes as if the person he is writing about is actually telling the story. Third, he satirized marriage in both of the stories and he tells his stories with great detail that you can feel the emotions of the characters. Fourth, both stories are scandalous and immediately grab the reader's attention.
