Meet the Pilgrims

Hello Class!  Welcome to our blog!  In here you may post any of your thoughts, questions, and concerns.  Although, I expect you guys to be curtious to your follow classmates, you may post whatever you want.  You do have to respond to the discussion question and at least two of our peers first.  That said, I hope that you may find this an open space to express yourself.  You are more than welcome to give a fake name, which is incoraged for your safety on the internet, just make sure that you tell me your name so that I can grade you.  So here we go, your first discussion assignment!

Pick a Pilgram from the General Prologue and rewrite the description of the character as how you see them.  How does their description affect your opinion of them?  How does the description reflect on the character's personality?  Be sure to look up what the name of the character means so that you can reflect on why Chaucer describes them the way that he does.

Be sure to post your response in the comment section and to comment on your peers by name.  Add a new post for any of your personal thoughts and questions.  Can't wait to hear from you!!
