chaucer reading for imagery

Literary critics usually use the term “image” to describe a moment when the language of a poem appeals explicitly to our visual sense. Images become “key” images when literature makes them a crucial part of a larger structure of visual experience, designs them to encapsulate a central idea or emotion, lavishes enormous verbal ornament upon them, or causes them to shock us with their beauty, violence, or incongruity. (Greenblatt, et al., 2012, p. 13)

Select two images from “The Wife of Bath’s Prologue and Tale.” Write a paragraph describing the way these images work. What insights do the images give us into plot, characterization, and theme? Are there any other ways in which the images operate to affect meaning?

Your initial post should be at least 250 words in length. Support your claims with examples from required material(s) and/or other scholarly resources, and properly cite any references. Respond to at least two of your classmates’ posts by Day 7.
