"This false thief... always had bawds as close at hand... they told him all the secrets that they learned... were his secret agents, and he drew great profit from that" He used the girls to tell him secrets from the men they were with, so he could summon them and make a profit off of them.]]> 2018-06-02 02:16:12 UTC https://padlet.com/lily_tran/b37nyy91r67r/wish/265121406 lily_tran https://padlet.com/lily_tran/b37nyy91r67r/wish/265362106 The Summoner claimed he was a bailiff instead of telling the yeoman he was actually a summoner. He decided to tell the lie about his profession because summoners are disliked: "'Then are you a bailiff?' 'Yes,' he said. He dared not, for the very filth and shame of the word, say that he was a summoner."]]> 2018-06-04 11:54:48 UTC https://padlet.com/lily_tran/b37nyy91r67r/wish/265362106 lily_tran https://padlet.com/lily_tran/b37nyy91r67r/wish/265536675 In Chaucer's Friar: A Portrait of Immortality, Knapp argues that the Friar is corrupt and a snob. Knapp states, "no one as knowledgeable in fair language and sociability as he, and that he is a very ceremonious fellow...  out of step with a man who is supposed to make a living by begging... This level of breeding and affinity for ceremony has likely come from an aristocratic birth... Friar is well acquainted with the franklins and worthy women of his territory, but he felt it beneath him to fraternize with other beggars, lepers, and the 'poor trash' around him." He argues the Friar is a snob because he is actually from an aristocratic birth. The Friar does not like to associate with the people is poverty, which contradicts his friar title, and instead likes to be around people of a higher social class. The Friar also feels that he is above his duties as a friar. Knapp also explains how the Friar is corrupted: "Be it indulgences, pardons, or what have you, the monetary "sale" of "divine influence" was certainly corrupt, and our Friar has taken full advantage of it... he fraternizes not with the poor, but with the rich, and he goes wherever he can find a profit." The Friar has taken full advantage over his position in order to rob people of their money. He does not associate with poor people because he knows he cannot get a lot of money from them, so he fraternizes with rich people because he knows he can make more of a profit with them. The Friar uses his position to please his own greed instead of living in poverty like he vowed to do.]]> 2018-06-05 03:06:32 UTC https://padlet.com/lily_tran/b37nyy91r67r/wish/265536675 lily_tran https://padlet.com/lily_tran/b37nyy91r67r/wish/266936800 2018-06-13 02:58:41 UTC https://padlet.com/lily_tran/b37nyy91r67r/wish/266936800 lily_tran https://padlet.com/lily_tran/b37nyy91r67r/wish/267140225 2018-06-14 05:03:26 UTC https://padlet.com/lily_tran/b37nyy91r67r/wish/267140225 lily_tran https://padlet.com/lily_tran/b37nyy91r67r/wish/267181988 2018-06-14 10:46:18 UTC https://padlet.com/lily_tran/b37nyy91r67r/wish/267181988
