When did the Pardoner's tale take place?
The pilgrims in Chaucer's tales are traveling in the spring of some year in the late 14th century.
Where is the setting for the Pardoner's tale?
The tale is set in Flanders at an indeterminate time, and opens with three young men drinking, gambling and blaspheming in a tavern.
