Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book provides a unique look at the societal and economic state of England in the late 14th century by examining the interactions of the narrator with different members of the church. The author, a follower of John Wycliffe, satirizes the corruption and greed of friars and other members of the Church, mocking the power and authority they wield over the people. This book is widely considered to be one of the finest examples of Middle English literature, and is foundational to our understanding of the everyday lives of people living in the middle ages. Its humorous and insightful look at the friars caused the book to be highly influential in fostering anti-clerical sentiment among the common people.
