Canterbury Tales

In Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales, there are many instances that would suggest that perhaps women are the downfall of men. It could be that contained with in the pages of this literary work is a hidden message of Chaucer’s time that women are evil and cannot help men in any way, or perhaps it is a piece that is just meant to satirize the role of the new women in the world. In either case, it is man’s fatal flaw, that undying love for women that always brings about his own downfall.

When faced with the scent of women men always seem to lose all reason and logic. Their brains become mush and immediately resort to their basic primal instincts. For example, in the Knight’s Tale, the carpenter believes the flood. No matter how outlandish or unreal it may seem to the reader, to the man it seems perfectly logical. The man wants to trust whole-heartedly that the women would never deceive him, so when a situation is presented where a lie may be used, the man is blinded by his love. This is also brought about when the carpenter believes the flood. He is also stupefied and dumbfounded and believes anything that women would tell him. This is another example of how women bring about the downfall of men.
