"The Wife of Bath's Tale" (Middle English: The Tale of the Wyf of Bathe) is among the best-known of Geoffrey Chaucer's Canterbury Tales. It provides insight into the role of women in the Late Middle Ages and was probably of interest to Chaucer himself, for the character is one of his most developed ones, with her Prologue twice as long as her Tale. He also goes so far as to describe two sets of clothing for her in his General Prologue. She holds her own among the bickering pilgrims, and evidence in the manuscripts suggests that although she was first assigned a different, plainer tale—perhaps the one told by the Shipman—she received her present tale as her significance increased. She calls herself both Alyson and Alys in the prologue, but to confuse matters these are also the names of her

  • Il prologo e il racconto della donna di Bath (The Wife of Bath's Prologue and Tale) è la sesta novella scritta da Geoffrey Chaucer all'interno dei Racconti di Canterbury. La donna di Bath offre un'immagine del ruolo della donna nel tardo medioevo ed è probabilmente una figura di interesse per Chaucer stesso: è infatti uno dei personaggi maggiormente sviluppati all'interno della novella. Nell'inglese di Chaucer (middle English), wife non significa "moglie" come nell'inglese contemporaneo, ma deriva da wif che significa "donna". (it)

Ia mencari, tetapi setiap perempuan yang ia temui menyatakan hal-hal yang berbeda, dari kekayaan hingga pujian. Satu tahun kemudian, dalam perjalanannya kembali, ia bertemu (in)
