The Vernacular in Literature A) Dante Alighieri wrote The Divine Comedy in the Tuscan vernacular, which helped to create a unified Italian language! The plot: Dante takes a journey to visit the souls in Hell, Purgatory, and Paradise. He is guided by Virgil (an ancient Roman poet). “Through me you pass into the city of woe: Through me you pass into eternal pain… Before me things create were none, save things Eternal, and eternal I shall endure. All hope abandon, ye who enter here.”

Vernacular Literature Continued… B) Geoffrey Chaucer (1342 - 1400) wrote The Canterbury Tales. It was an epic poem written in Middle English. Plot: 31 religious pilgrims journey to Canterbury Cathedral. Each pilgrim tells two tales on the way. (Much of it is satire) The tales are told by a knight, a carpenter, a cook, a wife, and a miller which gives insight into everyday medieval life and society.

Excerpt from The Prologue of the Wife of Bath's Tale, The Canterbury Tales "Experience… to speak of the woe that is in marriage; for, gentle people, since I was 12 years old--thank God… I have had 5 husbands at the church-door (for I have been wedded so often); and all were worthy men in their ranks... A variety of schools make perfect scholars, and much practice in a variety of employments truly makes the perfect workman. I have the schooling of five husbands. I would welcome the sixth, whenever he shall come! In truth, I will not keep myself wholly chaste; when my husband has departed from the world, then some other Christian man shall wed me…
