Chaereas
[ send me this essay ]
A 3 page essay that offers a character sketch of Chaereas, the young male protagonist of the ancient Greek saga "Chaereas and Callirhoe," which is a tale of love and adventure. The writer argues that this is also a tale that encompasses the Greek emphasis on the dangers of pride. Chaereas, a bold and beautiful young man, comes close to ruining his life due to his indulgence in pride and his failure to stop and think before acting. Therefore, an examination of how this ancient author portrayed Chaereas' character reveals a great deal about Greek cultural values. No additional sources cited.

Chaereas and Callirhoe/An Ephesian Tale
[ send me this essay ]
A 3 page essay that compares and contrasts the ancient Greek narratives of Chaereas and Callirhoe and An Ephesian Tale. The writer argues that these stories express a similar perspective on the topic of love and the manner in which romantic love manifests itself in human society, that is, through the action of the god Eros. This similarity is evident from the beginning of each tale, in which the handsome male protagonist is shown, despite personal beauty and ability, to be at the mercy of the god and also to possess enormous pride, which serves as the rationale to justify the trials and tribulations that are encountered in the story. No bibliography is offered.

Characterization of Chaucer’s “The Wife of Bath” from “The Canterbury Tales”: Elements Found in the General Prologue, Prologue and Tales
[ send me this essay ]
This is a 6 page paper discussing the characterization and the portrait of “The Wife of Bath” in The Canterbury Tales. Geoffrey Chaucer’s characterization of “The Wife of Bath” in “The Canterbury Tales” begins by her elaborate description in the General Prologue which is further detailed in her Prologue, considered the longest of all the Prologues, and her Tale. The Wife of Bath, in a company of men, does not present an image of an isolated woman of the 14th century. Instead, the Wife of Bath is well traveled, well experienced in marriage having been married and widowed five times and very well practiced in her social skills and ease with other travelers. The Wife of Bath presents a 14th century feminist view within her Prologue and Tale in which she satirizes her situation and the Church in many instances. Her characterization, Prologue and Tale are well linked and framed within the rest of the Canterbury Tales as Chaucer manages to incorporate not only the pilgrims’ common situation in telling the tales but also the obvious offence each tale gives to another of the pilgrims’: an artful strategy of linking which no doubt reflects well the circumstances of the time.
Bibliography lists 3 sources.
