Wife of Bath from Canterbury Tales
Hello.My name is Ayaka Kato. I would like to post about the Canterbury Tales.
In the lecture, I came to interested in one of the famous story in the Canterbury Tales. That is the wife of bath's tales.
The King Arthur commanded the young knight to find the answer of "What do the women most hope to do?" and he made a journey to do it. In his journey, he met the ugly old woman and she told him the answer. After he came back to the court, he told the answer,"Women hope to use their husband at will." Women in the court agreed strongly to his answer.
I couldn't tell all of the story but the tale continues. There is more interesting story in her tale. If you got interest in this tale, please check it. It is worthy of reading.
