Yes back in the Middle Ages, the Church would sell them, and they stated you were forgiven sin, and you could go to heaven, but this was all just a lie to get money for themselves.

How did the writings of Dante and Chaucer reflect the history of the cultures in which they were produce?

Dante's concepts and images of heaven and hell are fundamentally informed by the teachings of the Catholic Church of his day and were published for readers who were Catholics. Chaucer was an astute sopcial observer and wrote "The Canterbury Tales" as the equivalent of todays docu-dramas. He described types of people he experienced in society around him. The backcloth, though, the actual pilgrimage on foot from London to Canterbury represents an activity that was indeed done in those days by social classes. To take pilgrimage to Canterbury was held in high esteem then in basically the same way as for a Muslim to go on Hajj to Mecca is held today.

What were pieces of paper that the Catholic Church said could buy and guaranteed one's entry to Heaven?

Roman Catholic AnswerIn over twenty centuries that the Catholic Church has been in existence, there has never been a piece of paper that was said to buy and/or guarantee one's entry into Heaven. You are thinking of indulgences, but the only ones who ever thought indulgences could buy or guarantee their way into heaven were protestants. Indulgences are applications of the merits of Our Blessed Lord and the Saints that are applied through the offices of Our Blessed Lord's representative on earth towards reducing the penance that is required of someone whose sin is already forgiven. One must be headed to heaven to even apply for an indulgence.
