About the Book
"The General Prologue" is the first part of Geoffrey Chaucer’s The Canterbury Tales, one of the most important works in English literature. It introduces the frame story, where a group of pilgrims traveling to the shrine of Thomas Becket in Canterbury agree to take part in a storytelling competition. The Prologue provides vivid descriptions of the pilgrims, each representing different segments of medieval society, and sets the stage for the tales they will share on their journey. Through witty and insightful character sketches, Chaucer offers a satirical commentary on the social and religious norms of the time. A classic exploration of medieval life and human nature, The General Prologue remains a significant work for readers and scholars alike.
