    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Whitehead describes the complex significations of architectural structures in medieval thought and memory, examining Christian and classical roots of such thinking. Discusses classical, scriptural, and exegetical commentaries on concrete figures (e.g., temple, ark, cloister, castle, household) and explores commonplace rhetorical uses of architecture to represent abstractions such as fortune, fame, honor, knowledge, sex, and courtly love. Focuses on examples from vernacular literary representations (especially Middle English) ,including sustained discussion of Chaucer&#039;s HF as a skeptical response to Dante&#039;s castle of honor (&quot;Inferno&quot; 4) and its humanist legacy.]]></dcterms:description>
