    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Treats the &quot;psychological realism&quot; and &quot;moral allegory&quot; in TC as complementary, analyzing the imagery and themes of ancient gods, the moon, and mutability, associated with Criseyde. Images of hell and torment in the final two books, differing from those of paradisiacal joy in Book 3, reinforce the concern with change and pave the way for the poem&#039;s shifts in tone and character.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Reads ManT as an example of successful &quot;characterization through narrative technique,&quot; assessing its paucity of actual storytelling relative to the amount of moralizing. This tedious moralizing is comic and results from Chaucer&#039;s adaptations of his sources. However, it does not accord with the characterization in ManP nor in GP.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Establishes that GP is an example of the medieval literary genre of estates satire, i.e., a &quot;satiric representation of all classes of society,&quot; based on occupation. Surveys the tradition of the genre, including works that only draw on &quot;estates material,&quot; identifying sources and analogues for the details and attitudes that underlie each of the descriptions in GP, and showing that the form of GP is the estates satire, although it represents the third principal estate (laborers) with &quot;unusual richness.&quot; Demonstrates Chaucer&#039;s adaptations of estates materials and (in appendix B) argues that Chaucer was influenced by Gower (especially &quot;Mirour de l&#039;Omme&quot;) and Langland as well as by the larger Latin and French tradition. Discusses each of the GP descriptions, arranged in several topical categories of technique and subject matter.]]></dcterms:description>
