    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Uses selected Arthuriana to describe the development of chivalric romance and offer a descriptive definition of the genre.

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Examines the textbook practices of the medieval primary schools--the &quot;grammar schools&quot; or &quot;grammatica&quot;--as underlying the transition from Latin to English as the primary language of &quot;literary&quot; composition in England during the fourteenth century. Identifies Gower, Langland, and Chaucer as describing rather than reacting to the shift to English vernacular &quot;literary&quot; work. Explicates diversity in instructional practices during the period and argues that the classroom interplay in poetry between English and Latin led to acceptance of English as a &quot;literary&quot; language, noting the prevalence of Latin textbook passages rendered in English verse as supporting evidence. ]]></dcterms:description>
