A portrait of Geoffrey Chaucer (1343-1400), known as the Father of English literature. Widely considered the greatest English poet of the Middle Ages, he was the first poet to be buried in Poets' Corner of Westminster Abbey. While he achieved fame during his lifetime as an author, philosopher, and astronomer, composing a scientific treatise on the astrolabe for his ten-year-old son Lewis, Chaucer also maintained an active career in the civil service as a bureaucrat, courtier and diplomat. He is best known today for The Canterbury Tales.

'The Summoner's Tale' is one of The Canterbury Tales by Geoffrey Chaucer. The tale is a fierce counterpunch to the tale by The Friar, who had delivered an attack on summoners. Summoners were officials in ecclesiastical courts who delivered a summons to people who had been brought up on various charges. The office was prone to corruption, since summoners were infamous for threatening to bring people up on charges unless they were bought off. The Friar had accused them of corruption and taking bribes and the Summoner seeks to address the Friar through his own story.

Robert, Duke of Normandy, (1051-1134) son of William I of England at the castle of Geoffrey of Brindisi, Count of Conversano in the southern Italian province of Bari, Apulia, Italy. Robert married Sybilla the Count's daughter on the way back from the 1st Crusades. Geoffrey the Elder (died September 1100) was an Italo-Norman nobleman. A nephew of Robert Guiscard, it appears that he conquered most of his lands and when in 1067 the Guiscard demanded homage Geoffrey refused. Robert brought him to heel in the subsequent war and Geoffrey did homage.
