Canterbury Tales

[wazzup]

hey... needed to pick a tale ( Besides the millers tale, reeves tale, wife of baths tale and knights tale ) and find sculptures/paintings and songs from it... for those that have read the book, which tale do u think will be the easiest to get the above stuff ? also, can anyone point me to places where i could find such stuff? i tried google.com for songs but to no avail.. I am leaning towards the Pardoners tale as it is about a priest giving out indulgences...

What do u guys think?

thanks much

The Pardoner's tale would be a good choice, but it's not about a priest giving out indulgences. It's an exemplum about 3 young men and the price of greed.

The Nun's Priest's Tale is also good. It's founded on one of Aesop's fables, so finding materials for it shouldn't be all that tough.

Manciple's tale takes Phoebus Apollo as its protagonist. Shouldn't be all that tough to find things there, either.

Happy hunting.

hey... chose the manciple's tale..thanks much for ur help. any idea where i could find a song for it ( i.e. a song that would relate to the tale ) ??? having trouble finding a song for the tale... found a sculpture of apollo so im all set with that... the song iimo should be talking about repentance or something so i googled for song with repentance but to no avail.. those songs are not totally related... :(

The moral of the tale has to do with keeping your mouth shut. Lyrics that handle the topic of consequences for gossip might do it.

Any song that deals with murder because of jealousy would be a good search.
