    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Investigates credulity as a feature of radical medieval thought (Marsilio of Padua, William of Ockham, John Wycliffe) and as depicted in Boccaccio and Chaucer. A creative artist rather than a philosopher or theologian, Chaucer uses various characters to open heterodoxy for discussion--e.g., the Wife of Bath, the friar of The SumT, and the Pardoner.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Henryson&#039;s preface to the &quot;Testament of Cresseid&quot; is to be taken seriously.  Having read Chaucer, he picked up &quot;an euther quair&quot; that portrays Cresseid as a whore.  His poem therefore accurately reflects a contemporary apologia for his heroine.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Aronstein shows how Henryson, influenced by late-fifteenth-century attitudes toward women, especially prostitutes, returns the story of Criseyde to its pre-Chaucerian misogynistic purpose.  The article examines the story&#039;s literary history and its participation in the debate about women; considers Chaucer&#039;s ambiguous attitude toward Criseyde; and shows how Henryson suppresses such ambiguities to eliminate the danger of sympathetic misreadings.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Medieval notions of crime were broader than modern ones.  Chaucer&#039;s views on justice and crime, as reflected in FrT, MLT, and ClT, are elusive.
