From the Paper:

"Geoffrey Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales is about a group of pilgrims traveling together to Canterbury and along the way tell one another stories to pass the time. They are quite a mix of individuals, from all positions in society, and make quite a group. Each of the pilgrims tells a story or tale that clearly reflects the personality of its teller. "The Miller's Tale" is, of course, told by a Miller. The Miller is a somewhat crude man with a distinctive appearance, personality, and values, and these are evident in his story. "The Miller's Tale" is constructed around cuckoldry and the Miller's attitudes about it."
