Chaucer's Craft in Telling Philosophical Lessons in "The Manciple's Tale"

"The Manciple's Tale" is a beast fable. Chaucer is a genius both in designing creative plots and teaching philosophical lessons in this beast fable. Chaucer arranges the Manciple to tell the story and the Manciple lets the animals tell the truth. Chaucer combines two philosophical lessons and his creative plot together perfectly.
