Which statement best describes the satire in the excerpt?
Ilya [14]

Hi there!

The statement that best describes the satire in the excerpt from The Canterbury Tales  is that Chaucer criticizes the idea that forgiveness is available for purchase.

In pieces of literature, performing arts or dances, satire is a genre that is used to ridicule or shame someone through wittiness and in form of humour. Satire is usually meant to be humorous.

This can be seen in the excerpt with: “All for a penny! Out now with your purse!” <em>Chaucer expresses humorously what he thinks about churches.  </em>

Hope this helps!

Is the Rivals a comedy or a farce?
madreJ [45]

Answer:

comedy, hope i get brainliest!!!

The Rivals is a comedy of manners. Its farcical storyline depends on mistaken identities and miscommunication. The characters' lives are woven together through arranged marriages and duels. Fortunately, Sheridan's characters are timeless enough to shine through the nonsensical context.Jul 24, 2009

Genre: Comedy of manners

Playwright: Richard Brinsley Sheridan
