The Wife of Bath: Performance and Confessions in the Prologue and the Tale.
Chaucer characterizes the Wife of Bath in two different ways. In the Prologue, she is given a common English speech with which to describe herself and her experiences. In the Tale, the wife is able to reveal her own desires in a husband, as she choose a tale that can reflect her wishes. This essay considers how the wife is characterized in the Prologue and the Tale, and then compares this with the video-documentary, Madonna: Truth or Dare. Performance and confession are represented differently, so that the public and private person can be revealed. 4 pgs. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
