The Comparison Tale

I feel like all of our characters were the same in the aspect that they all go against their stereotypes. The knight wasn't noble and the cook was always wasted off of his own wine. Chaucer's characters were so different yet so similar in so many different ways. Each character had a different story and tale but they all share the same diversity when it comes to the groups they're stereotyped in. In my point of view, each character shared the same tone/theme/style. I saw all of their themes as Chaucer's way of saying not everyone is who they seem or say they are and that their true colors reflect who they really are, regardless of their title and rank. Of course the style was the same,considering Chaucer wrote and created all of the characters, the tone just happened to be a bonus. Every tone was basically describing who they say they are and who they really are. I suppose you could say my outlook on the Canterbury Tales as different and somewhat simple minded. But, I honestly feel like Chaucer used all of these characters to prove a point about human nature and who we really are, not the title that covers our true identities.
