The canterbury tales

the woman who tells "the wife of bath's tale" is confident, wealthy, and is able to command
the attention of the other pilgrims, even when men try to interrupt her. why is her personality,
especially as a woman in 1392, important to the canterbury tales and her own story?

it is not important; women had equal rights in 1392, so her personality is normal for the
era.

chaucer was giving an example of how a woman should not act; he believed women
should be submissive, quiet, and controlled.

her confidence is important because in chaucer's day the husband had mastery in
marriage, and the wife's proper attitude was complete submission to her husband, no
matter how she is treated.

chaucer was showing his criticism and disagreement with how
women were treated.

her confidence is important because it is an example of how all women acted in medieval
europe.
