The story can be considered a mock-heroic poem. It parodies tales of chivalry and adventure, such as those from Arthurian legend and Chaucer's own "The Knight's Tale". "The Tale of Sir Thopas" is written in a very simple verse structure, not used anywhere else in The Canterbury Tales, which helps to give the impression that it is a form of low-quality literature.
