Parallels in "The Canterbury Tales" and "The Decameron"
[ send me this essay ]
A 5 page
paper examining parallels primarily in the Pardoner's tale and the story of Friar Cipollo's charcoal.
These works are different in their settings and themes, but not greatly so. Each highlights the
basest part of human nature that so readily surfaces, and then contrasts that with methods of
overcoming that baseness in order to live by higher ideals. Each encouraged readers to live on a
higher plane and to take the best of the changes then occurring to improve their lives, rather than
sink into less attractive forms. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
