Talk:General Prologue

yeoman
the list of the differnt characters all have links to the pages for these characters in the book... all except for the yeoman, can someone please fix that


 * I removed the link to the yeoman as he and several other unlinked pilgrims don't actually have tales. MeltBanana  01:18, 23 May 2006 (UTC)


 * The yeoman actually has a tale. It's called The Canon's Yeoman's Prologue and Tale.Bdodo1992 23:18, 3 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Actually, the Canon's Yoeman is not the same character as the yoeman in the General Prologue (the Knight's Yoeman). The Canon and his yoeman join the pilgrimage after the General Prologue (see Canon's Yoeman's Prologue).  The yoeman in the General Prologue does not have a tale.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fvillion (talk • contribs) 16:00, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

Chaucer as Narrator
I am taking the liberty of adding a paragraph under the "Structure" sub heading with reference to the identity of the narrator in the "Canterbury Tales". I am mostly expanding on the debate surrounding whether or not Chaucer is the narrator. It is an important distinction to make, as it has implications for approaching the situational irony throughout the tales. Mostly, I am stating that Chaucer being the narrator of the tales in general is NOT a 100% certain fact and that their are two sides to the debate.

remove list?
I can't see how the recently-added list of tales is good for this article. The tales are not a feature of the General Prologue, but of the Canterbury Tales as a whole (where they are duly listed). Moreover, this list already exists in BOTH of the navboxes at the bottom. I recommend the section be deleted. Phil wink (talk) 17:17, 15 January 2015 (UTC)


 * I agree, and I'm removing them. -- asilvering (talk) 16:56, 12 November 2021 (UTC)
