In the Canterbury Tales, the literary technique used to connect one story to a series of other stories is called a "frame narrative." This technique involves a main story or frame that encloses and links several smaller stories. In Chaucer's work, the frame is the pilgrimage to Canterbury, during which various characters tell their own tales. This structure allows for a diversity of voices and themes, enriching the text with multiple perspectives and insights into medieval life.
