SEMINAR 8: LA EDAD MEDIA TÉTRICA: THE PARDONER’S PROLOGUE AND

TALE CLAUDIA SCHEELE RAMOS DOS SANTOS

1. What is the pardoner's strategy every time he gets into a new village? His strategy is exhibiting the hard sell he has when he shows up in a town, the Pardoner portrays a portion of his relics and their healing properties. 2. What are the common sins he guesses these audiences may be guilty of? The gluttony, drunkenness and gambling, are common sins that people have on their normal life and the Pardoner guesses the audience to be guilty of. 3. Why do you think he stresses the sentence: “Radix malorum est cupiditas”?

The Pardoner explains to the pilgrims what is the reason why is he always using "greed is the root of all evil" (Radix malorum cupiditas) as his subject when he preachs, this is to better to to loosen the purse strings of his. 4. Does he believe in the spiritual efficacy of his sermons or in the redemptive power of relics? Indeed, he does, an unmistakable illustration of this is the manner by which he utilizes his own insight to let the crowd know that transgression can be a relic assuming there is a sensation of disappointment. 5. Once the pardoner starts narrating, he interrupts the story to preach against gluttony, drunkenness, betting and swearing; what do you think his aim is?

The Pardoner conveys smaller than expected lessons drunkenness, gluttony, gambling, and oath swearing, biblical and historical models examples and showing how this large number of sins are interrelated, his point is to make us perceive how our activities have results and sooner the perusers acknowledge how risky sins can be, so it is essential to use sound judgment with the goal that the outcomes aren't terrible.

6. How do these vices relate to the three protagonists in the story? The the Pardoner’s vices are generally getting drunk, ravenousness and betting, first and foremost we can see a reasonable connection on the grounds that the three heroes would for the most part end up inebriated in taberns betting, also the bad habit of avarices is unmistakably clarified on the last piece of the story where the three heroes view as the gold and them three attempt to track down a method of having everything to themselves by killing one another, the demonstration of not having any desire to share makes a reasonable reference to what voracity means for all people in various regions. 7. What might they represent? And the old man they meet and who tells them where Death may be found? They address how the human is a recluse animal, which consistently needs to an ever increasing extent and assuming it can take everything without sharing it will do as such, (for example, the three heroes did with the gold and they all finished dead). The elderly person that the three heroes meet lets them know that demise will be found under a tree around the bend, however when they show up in the wake of following the elderly person's bearings, they track down 8 gold coins and overlook their obligation to that excursion. At long last, in the wake of being casualties of their own hopelessness, they need to kill each other so they don't need to share the gold, eventually, they are on the whole dead.

8.

What would the moral of the story be?

The Pardoner's Tale has had the ethical quality with regards to money dangers and greed since they had seen individuals that were killed with next to no explanation and the main explanation about these deaths was to catch on their property in the wake of killing. As per Chaucer, he said that in Pardoner's story there were three individuals who become companions and their fellowship got changed on fraternity since they were so sweet and pleasant to one another and they guaranteed that they won't keep anything mysterious between them and will be loyal and honest. As the time is passing by they were progressing admirably, however there was a moment when they even killed each other on account of cash voracity. Likewise, the pardoner's story is a story which shows us something new, that how money can make a person go mad for money, The Pardoner's story is an apologia of a the pardoner force of the congregation to excuse others for their transgressions, yet gets by out of

lying and deceiving his audience. He comes out and concedes that the main explanation he lectures is to turn into a well off man, he couldn't care less with regards to individuals who preach him....
