Chaucer and women

What I found interesting about Chaucer from looking on the Internet was that this man had lived through the black death , the peasants revolt, and the only decapitation of an English king. This guy could have probably written about his life and turned it into a great novel.
Another thing that the Internet taught me that I thought was interesting was the fact that women worked just as hard as men during this time. I had always known that they were looked down upon in the middle ages but what I did not know was that they worked in the field along side the men

Well that about does it for me I posted the names of the sites I used down below.

Till next time
