    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Reads CT, TC, and LGW in the context of late medieval courtesy books, advice literature, and epistolary collections. Considers public and private marital honor in the Paston letters and FranT, and wifely obedience in ClT, &quot;Menagier de Paris,&quot; and &quot;Livre de la vertu du sacrement de mariage.&quot; ShT illustrates the limits of women&#039;s economic power often suggested by the Paston, Stonor, and Plumpton correspondence, and MerT suggests the possibility of rebellion against advice literature. MLT goes beyond the conduct books to recommend female acceptance of marital unhappiness. KnT presents a pragmatic notion of marriage for the greater sociopolitical good. TC, &quot;The Book of the Knight of the Tower,&quot; and Christine de Pizan&#039;s &quot;Livre des trois vertus&quot; question courtly ideals, and LGW dramatizes its heroines&#039; quasi-comic misapplications of advice literature.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Critiques traditional treatment of Chaucer&#039;s English as the main antecedent of modern English and the assertion that it is representative. Chaucer&#039;s English is more conservative than that of many of his contemporaries and of general spoken discourse. Chaucer&#039;s use of the second-person plural pronoun, rife with social implications, indicates that the T-V distinction was no more than part of Chaucer&#039;s stylistic toolbox and not a marker of linguistic change. Some attention is given to TC.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[In the five instances in which &quot;male,&quot; meaning &quot;bag or pouch&quot; or &quot;holder of writing,&quot; appears in CT, the word can also mean &quot;man, male gender, or genitals,&quot; &quot;stomach,&quot; and &quot;wrongdoing.&quot; Through this wordplay, Chaucer reveals his anxieties about the type of author he might be, and about the relationships between authorship and sinfulness and spirituality.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Chaucer is aware of poetic or aureate diction but seldom uses it. He is &quot;essentially a poet of &#039;occupatio&#039;.&quot; Language change rapidly made Chaucer&#039;s meter difficult to imitate, even for Lydgate. Like other writers, Chaucer introduces new Latinate vocabulary, especially in prose, even as he tries to write simply.

Refers to Astr and Bo.]]></dcterms:description>
