In "The Book Thief," Death is personified as a narrator who watches over the characters and recounts their stories from World War II. Death is portrayed as weary and compassionate, feeling the weight of each soul he takes. Death's reaction to the events of the book is a mix of sadness and resignation, as he grapples with the loss and destruction caused by war.
In "The Pardoner's Tale," the tavern-knave and the publican personify death through their vivid and ominous descriptions of it as a cunning and inevitable force. The knave speaks of death as a thief who takes lives unexpectedly, while the publican recounts the recent deaths in their community, highlighting death's pervasive presence. This personification emphasizes death's role as a relentless pursuer of humanity, driving the characters to seek out and confront it, ultimately leading to their tragic downfall. Through their dialogue, death is depicted as both a literal and metaphorical antagonist in the tale.
The tavern-knave calls Death a "privy thief" and the publican says that Death probably lives near the village where many people have died. The rioters show how foolish and arrogant they are when they decide to "kill" Death.
