 *  The Knight’s Tale by Chaucer’s is about knights lives who fall in love with a princess. Due to the fact that the play has knights we know that it is in the medieval times, the medieval times were from about 500 A.D. to 1500. The effect it has on our culture is to show us the rules of chivalry. Which is all about being loyal and keeping promises. The Knight’s Tale show us what it means to keep promises and what it meant back then, because, these days really promises do not mean as much as they used to. The culture back then was really different then it is now because of that fact, that loyalty really does not mean as much as it used to and everyone gets stabbed in the back at some point. THis story is really just like dating the person your best friend likes. **

 * The Chaucer’s Knight Tale is meant to show two knights that fall in love and how they deal with the fact that they are supposed to stay loyal to one another. See, These two knights have made promises to help each other in every way possible and now that they are both in love with the same girl this starts a lot of problems with the two nights. This is very much of a romantic comedy and so this is intended for humor and love. The Chaucer’s Knight has a common theme such as, keeping your promises and staying loyal to those who you swore loyalty to. It is very important because it shows what happens when two very close people fall for the same “perfect woman.” **
