Storytime: The Canterbury Tales
Apr 07, 2025 6:32 am
Hello,
Happy Monday. I hope your week gets off to a good start.
I want to share a 3-minute summary of a famous story that has been told for centuries. The story is about a group of pilgrims and their adventures, and it has captured the hearts and minds of readers for generations.
The Canterbury Tales is a collection of stories written by Geoffrey Chaucer in the 14th century. It is narrated by a group of pilgrims who are traveling to Canterbury to visit the shrine of Saint Thomas Becket.
It explores themes of love, morality, and the human condition. The characters come from different walks of life, including a knight, a nun, a merchant, and a miller. Each character has their perspective on life and a tale to share.
Read or listen to the summary of the Canterbury Tales.
I'll be back on Wednesday with a story from history that I think you'll enjoy.
Thanks!
William
