CANTERBURY TALES (II): WHAT A CHARACTER!

The Knight's Tale:
Chaucer used direct characterization in this tale. The narrator tells us basically all the qualities of his characters. Some times he depend on the characters dialogue to pick up descriptions of the characters.  The tone of the tale is epic. It's two warriors trying to win the love of their life. Everything is told in a bigger way to show their importance.
