Wife of Bath – known officially as The Wife of Bath’s Tale – is a story that can be found in the Canterbury Tales, a book written by Geoffrey Chaucer during the 14th century. The main theme of the tale is women’s life during the Late Middle Ages – with emphasis on how women are treated lesser than their male counterparts.
