The Canterbury Tales by Geoffrey Chaucer is a group of stories where pilgrims tell tales during their journey to a holy shrine in Canterbury. There are 29 pilgrims but the first two pilgrims to tell tales are the knight and the miller. The miller practically mirrors the knight’s story. The miller’s tale uses elements similar to the knight’s tale but it corrupts those same elements by mimicking them. The miller’s tale and the knight’s tales are very different although they have some similarities.
