    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Argues that, rooted in &quot;medieval theory of mediated perception&quot; and concerned with perceptual distortion, HF shows how a &quot;sensing body&quot; participates in an &quot;ambient mediascape&quot;--one that includes environmental media (air, water, architecture) as well as aesthetic media (painting, engraving, writing).]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Contrasts the hermeneutics of ekphrastic scenes in &quot;Purgatorio&quot; and HF: the viewing by Dante&#039;s viator of bas-reliefs in the first cornice of Purgatory (X.25ff.) encourages emotional detachment when searching for truth in art; Geffrey&#039;s compassion when viewing the murals on the walls of Venus&#039;s temple in HF (140ff.) &quot;is precisely what prompts him to reject such representations and search for truth elsewhere.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Argues that HF depicts a journey through the mental operation of using traditional classical material to generate new literature (tidings) and, in doing so, reflects aspects of late medieval understanding of psychology and economics. Crucial to the latter is a shift from the model of household maintenance to that of chresmatistic mercantile expansion, which depends upon dislocation, multiplication, even unnatural usury--in various ways analogous to imagination rather than memory.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Challenges the applicability of modern narratology to medieval narratives, examining the narrating position in &quot;King Horn&quot; as popular romance and in BD as adaptation of a French &quot;dit,&quot; and showing that novel-based notions of narrator-as-character do not apply. In Chaucer&#039;s case, the first-person pronouns convey &quot;a proximal deictic,&quot; i.e., &quot;a certain literary effect, one that is hard to define except as &#039;I-ness&#039;--the sense of being a centre of experience and perception.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

BD illustrates differences between hearing and listening, while PF records a &quot;paradigm shift&quot; from seeing to listening, and HF reflects Chaucer&#039;s &quot;sense of the partiality of his own poetic voice, dependent as it is on the collaboration of his auditor to come into being.&quot; Attends to noise, gossip, voice, animal sounds, acousmatic sound and reading, transduction, listening &quot;modalities,&quot; and theories of aurality.]]></dcterms:description>
