Elizabeth Gaskell's Ruth is a social novel, also know as "problem novel" that deals with the old Victorian views about legitimacy and sinful behaviors. Gaskell portrays an outcast, "a fallen woman" in a very compassionate way.
It is demonstrated how the society would act towards a mother who conceived a child out of a marriage and how the main character, Ruth, is viewed as an evil and sinful person, despite the fact that she is actually good from what we can see. A proof of that would be the fact that she was willing to act as a nurse for typhus victims. She even treated Bellingham who was responsible for her ruin.
It is also interesting to note that she was not treated as a bad person or unwanted person by the townspeople who actually appreciated her nursing care. She also did not speak down to them. She recognized their needs and they were thankful for that.
According to the narrator - Geoffrey Chaucer- A GROUP OF PILGRIMS, "sundry folk" arrived at the inn.
Each pilgrim is described in the Prologue of the book. ( A pilgrim is a traveler sho is on a journey to a holy place. In this case, to Canterbury, where the shrine of Thomas Beckett is).
Chaucer describes their condition, their social decree and their array. Among the pilgrims there are a knight, a squire, a cook, a carpenter, a doctor of physic, a wife of Bath, etc.
At the end of the Prologue, the host proposes a story telling contest: each pilgrim will have to tell 2 stories on the way to Canterbury and two on the way back.
That's why the title of the book is the "Canterbury Tales"
