    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Dreams, Stress, and Interpretation in Chaucer and His Contemporaries]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[In Chaucer and other fourteenth-century writers, dreams often prompt the dreamers to try to assert intellectual control over their mysterious experience by classifying the possible causes or truth values of dreams.  Earlier classifications of this sort were supplemented by newer ones, such as Nicholas of Lyra&#039;s (text and translation in appendix).]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Considers the &quot;authoritative weight&quot; of dreams and visions in literature, focusing on their connections with other forms of prophetic or revelatory texts and offering a taxonomy of varieties. Includes chapters on the biblical Book of Daniel, Macrobius&#039;s &quot;Commentary on the Dream of Scipio,&quot; Julian of Norwich&#039;s &quot;Revelations of Love,&quot; and HF, with references to many other works. Argues that HF, in step with aspects of the growing skepticism of later fourteenth-century thought, ironically undercuts its own claims to authority.]]></dcterms:description>

Late-medieval notions of self differ from modern ones; the process of preparing for confession led the penitent to recognize and discard the sinful self to reestablish unity with the &quot;Imago Dei&quot; that is the true self.]]></dcterms:description>
