Hi. You forgot to say that this question is about "The Pardoner’s Tale" and "The Wife of Bath’s Tale".
Answer:
I believe that the poet had a reform and censorship agenda, since the two stories have a moralistic character and want to send a message.
Step-by-step explanation:
"The Pardoner’s Tale" was written to convey a message about death, betrayal and ambition; while "The Wife of Bath’s Tale" reflects on the position of women within society and within marriage. The two stories are very punctual in their positions, bringing reflections of a reforming nature and often censoring identifiable positions of society. In this way, we can say that the writer did not wish, directly to capture life in all its glory, but rather to establish a reform or censorship agenda.
