Geoffrey Chaucer, a 14th century author, courtier, and beaurocrat is perhaps best remembered for a collection of poems called //The Canterbury Tales//, a humorous "frame-story" that recounts the travels of several "pilgrims" as they make their way to the shrine of [|Saint Thomas Becket] at [|Canterbury Cathedral]. Although the collection of tales is his best known work, ironically enough this commentary on the various stations and elements of courtly and public was never completed.
