What does the Nun's Priest's tale suggest about its teller the Nun's Priest?

Answer 1

I would suggest that the Nun's Priest Tale tells us lots about his skill with rhetoric, storytelling as an art, and satirising multiple genres. He is clearly a man of some intelligence, and seems to have strong opinions, in particular his views of misogyny and the church. He's placed in a subservant position below the prioress but from his contrasting description of the widow and the prioress' description he seems to be making a satirical dig, at her lack of "nun like" behaviour. The Nun's Priest seems to have a fairly good sense of humour, and is both a comic and engaging storyteller. Thats just my guess anyway :)

Answer 2

The Nun's Priest's tale suggests that its teller, the Nun's Priest, is a skilled storyteller who is witty, observant, and able to weave moral lessons into his narrative. He shows a deep understanding of human nature and uses animal characters to convey his message effectively.
