The Black Plague most likely influenced the story choices of the monk.

Option D

Explanation:

The period between the years 1347 – 1351 was the dark period in human history as an extremely deadly plague had spread across Europe & Asia and killed 75 -200 million people approximately. This catastrophe has influenced medieval culture, art, and literature. This event has influenced the story choices of the monks as well which is evident from the work of Chaucer who had written the Canterbury Tales.

In these tales, monks have elaborated about many common traits of the people who were trapped and suffered this tragic event. These stories also depicted strong hostility for catholic churches as they portrayed the religious characters as hypocrites and immoral.
