Satire is the use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people's stupidity or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues. In our own words its being sarcastic and mocking people. His satire is that they all tried to backstab each other to get the treasure for themselves and in the end they all ended up dying. So no one got the treasure. In the prologue, he says that he going to bring peace and he preaches to the people to stop being greedy. He ends up being greedy himself.

The main part of the story isn't so much about the Pardoner until the last couple stanzas. The last two stanzas reveal that he uses the idea of being cleansed of your sins as a way to rob people of their money. Everyone wants to feel as if they are doing good in their life. They want the satisfaction of knowing they will be going to heaven, even after they have sinned. With that in mind the Pardoner had the ability to ask for money and wool in return for granting the people a path to heaven.
(Haris, Shelby)

He is like a business man. He tells the story and then says if you don't want that to happen to you, pay me then you'll go to heaven.

He is satirizing the member of the clergy that traveled and how the pardoner killed the two men guarding the treasure by poisoning them. Resulting in no one getting the treasure because they all died.

Q. How is "the Pardoner's Tale" an exemplum?
A. what is an exemplum? a story based on folk stories, and it is based on morality of the characters. usually has a lesson.

The pardoner's tale is a story based on the bad morality of the Rioters thus making them the characters of an exemplum. The pardoner is telling this story to scare the villagers to not be greedy, by telling them how the poor morals of the rioters got them killed. It is ironic that he needs to tell them about not being greedy when he is called a pardoner and is by definition greedy.

He is committed to his role of persuasion, seeing as he creates the entire tale in order to convince his audience of their possible sins of avarice. In the ending portion of the story, the Pardoner states that he will free you of all sin related to avarice, provided that you make an appeal with an offering to him. This example is ironic by showing his own greed, which is exactly what he is advocating against.

The tale is ironic and hypocritical, because the Pardoner himself is quite greedy. The tale emphasizes the persuasion that the pardoner uses to get money from the people as well as the effort he goes to to persuade the people.............. to be continued!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The main moral is greed being the root of all evil.
Examples include the pardoner trying to get a lot of money because it's his occupation, and, in the actual tale, all three men were greedy and it led to there deaths.
