The 21st century Pardoners Tale: a complete comparison between Indulgences and Carbon Credits By Dr. Tim Ball
Geoffrey Chaucer (c.1342 - 1400) is among the giants of English literature recognized for his perceptive and realistic stories about human nature. He did this by creating individual characters who were a broad representation of groups of people. Like Shakespeare, he produced stories that are instantly recognizable at any time in history and in any society. In his most famous work, The Canterbury Tales he introduces a number of characters traveling together on a pilgrimage. He does this with what Paul Johnson describes as, “ a lethal combination of satire, irony, and sarcasm.”
