The Middle English period is from 1066 to 1500. This story is written by Chaucer. He wrote about over 500 works. he is not only a writer but also government worker and diplomat. Canterbury Tales written for educated readers. They may have a knowledge of Latin. 29 pilgrims gathered at the Ta bard Inn. Each Pilgrim is identified by his or her profession. Tree social stereo type of each Pilgrim that are ironic. some connections can still be made in modern world.
