Question

What is irony? How does Chaucer present the priest ironically?

Answer 1

Hey dude,

Dramatic irony is when the audience is aware of something that a character is not. For example, in 'The Nun's Priest's Tale,' a rooster named Chanticleer is persuaded into trusting a fox who compliments his singing. The purpose of dramatic irony in this story is to teach a moral about being wary of flattery.
