Question

(Canterbury) Which character holds views that appear the most superstitious and antiquated to modern readers?

A) the franklin

B) the merchant

C) the physician

D) the scholar

Answer 1

The answer is C.

The physician is the character that may be perceived as the most superstitious and antiquated to modern readers because the story called "The Physician" in the Cantebury Tales by Geoffrey Chaucer is about the importance of honor and respect the virginity in that time. Taking into account that the Cantebury Tales were write from 1387 to 1400.
