3/21 The "Miller's Tale" is a fabliaux, or comical poem because it catches the readers attention. Some aspects of the tale that make it so humerous are that it is simply the opposite to the prior story about courtly love. Also its a story of trickery and decieving as they convince others that a massive flood is coming in order for an affair to take place. The "Miller's Tale' is drastic and that is what makes it a fabliaux.
