No New Tale, No New Tale, No New New.....

The Pardoner's tale, in my opinion, doesn't convey nothing new. There's always going to be someone in old english who claim that they are very much religious, but sin just as much as someone who's not. Then they justify their actions and try to make it seem that they are right. The Pardoner is basically a con man, who swindles religious people out of their money. He gives them advice or indulgences based on their sins. He alway tell them about how three men killed each other over money. His moral is greed is the root to all evil. But then that means he's evil too, because he preys on unsuspecting victims for money. I like the Wife if Bath's Tale because I thought it was hilarious but I also like the moral of story and how it unfolds. Basically this knight have to figure out what all women want. And in this story, it's sovereignty over their husbands and to be treated equal.
