The Monk's Tale Analysis

Geoffrey Chaucer chose to write this narrative to talk about the different sixteen short stories. Each one is different and you learn something in each one. Such as the first story it was about Lucifer, he fell down from heaven and went down to hell because of all his sins. That story is very different from the others they all have interesting parts that make the narrative more interesting to read.
For example, the tale of Hercules is not similar to the tale of Samson. However, there might be some similarities because all of them involve sin of some kind and it shows how when The Monk’s Tale was written they might have found different things wrong than what we do now. It all goes back to cultural values though because times have changed since

then and the things he writes about may not be as big of a deal now.
Since apparently this was written a long time ago even just the way the author writes is completly different than how authors may write today. Also, everyone has their own opinion about what they think is sinful and what is not so bad. People are also easily influenced by what they hear back when this was written maybe more people would agree or understand the point he was trying to make.
All these stories include a tragedy of some kind, all unalike. I don’t think anyone knows exactly why Chaucer chose to write about this and what point he was trying to get across. Although, as readers we do make inferences and we assume why he wrote this talking about specific sinful acts that lead to some unfortunate situations.
