if i had the choice of which pilgrim i would like to spend time with it would have to be the Wife of Bath and the Franklin. first off, the wife of bath seems like the only women on this pilgrimage with some personality and so what if she's provocative and unchristian, she's seems rly cool. also the Franklin seems like he's some old man who's living the life. he reminds me of those old millionaire men who have worked all their life and know what the good stuff is. (kinda like my grandfather but with a lot less food and a bit less money). he's the type of person who to me seems to have the most to say and who is very genereous.
it's party time with the wife of bath and the franklin!!!
If I had to choose which pilgrim who I would like to spend time with it would be the Wife of Bath. She has a huge personality and is not too corrupt (like the pardoner) or too pious (like the parson who seems boring). Although she is certainly not the most virtuous character in the novel, like Natasha said, she seems like a really cool person.
I would choose the Wife of Bath, as will many others I think. I'd choose her because she has some attitude and doesn't take no for an answer. No one can mess with her. Also, she seems like a fun pilgrim-buddy (?) because she has so much to tell and a lot on her mind, as we see in her prologue that never seems to end.
I would choose the Wife of Bath as well. She is very open and really has a lot of stories to tell; she would keep the conversation going. She basically does what she wants whenever she wants; she's a dominant woman. She likes to show off and talk about herself with pride. Her stories are fun to hear about. Maybe she is known as the Wife of Bath because she got married five times and Bath is the place where she is from.
This might not sound very original... haha But I would also spend time with the Wife of Bath. She is a woman that has truly lived she has "been around" if you know what I mean, and that somehow makes her more interesting because I feel like she knows something about life that the others don't. I find that we get attached to her because she has a modern personality, one that we might see today. Furthermore, she is not restricted by the prejudices of her time, so she is somehow appart and independant (which I like). To get to Mrs. Reilly's question... I think that she is called the Wife of Bath because she has been with so many men she has become the wife of an entire population of Bath instead of being one individual's wife. :P
My favorite pilgrim is the Clerk because he is the wisest and comes off as the most modest. However, I'm sure he would be quite boring and conservative. For this reason, I would rather spend time with the Miller: the seediest of all the characters. Though his unruly behavior might be considered offensive or annoying it is probably the most interesting. Along with many others, I am sure, I can't wait to dive into the Miller's tale and feel the thrill of his dirty gossip.

ReplyDeleteWhy do you think she is known as The Wife of Bath?

ReplyDeleteTrue, Charlotte, though I'm not sure he holds women in high esteem...still, he tells a mean tale!
