  1. In “The Canterbury Tales,” Chaucer explores the theme of the seven deadly sins through various characters. Choose one of the sins (e.g., greed, lust, envy) and create a new character who embodies this sin. Write a short story or character sketch that delves into the motivations, actions, and consequences of this character’s sinful behavior. How does their sin affect their relationships with others on the pilgrimage? How does it contribute to the overall moral message of the tale?

  2. The seven deadly sins play a significant role in “The Canterbury Tales,” highlighting the flaws and vices of humanity. Imagine you are a modern-day pilgrim on a journey, similar to the characters in Chaucer’s tales. Reflect on your own experiences and observations of the seven deadly sins in today’s society. Choose one sin that you believe is particularly prevalent or impactful in the modern world (e.g., pride, gluttony, wrath) and write a personal essay discussing its manifestations and consequences. How does this sin affect individuals, communities, and society as a whole? Draw parallels between your observations and the tales told by Chaucer’s pilgrims, exploring the timeless nature of human vices.
