To wrap up the topic of class divisions in society, the numerous examples from Chaucer and Shakespeare’s writing can be viewed as a form of symbolic elements. Throughout both Canterbury Tales and Henry V, the representation of class division is shown as a symbolic representation of how society was divided and flowed back in late fourteenth/ fifteenth century. Without the emphasis on social division and societal norms, it would be very difficult to establish a solid representation of the medieval society Shakespeare and Chaucer are both so involved in.
