    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Reads the figure of Alceste in LGW as a &quot;fable&quot; of female patronage, and argues that texts such as John Metham&#039;s &quot;Amoryus and Cleopes&quot; and an anonymous English translation of a portion of Boccaccio&#039;s &quot;De Mulieribus Claris&quot; do not follow Chaucer&#039;s (or Boccaccio&#039;s) lead in this respect. Chaucer &quot;jokingly&quot; poses &quot;fascinating questions&quot; about female patrons and audiences, but the later texts take them seriously.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[In PrT, as in much canonical medieval literature, Jews are largely voiceless and depicted as vile. The lamentations, or &quot;kinot,&quot; of Hebrew liturgical poets who mourn the Jewish victims of the crusades record the voices of medieval Jews. The imagery and motifs of the kinot are often ironically reminiscent of PrT, including concern with mother/child relations, with study, with defilement, etc.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Wright argues that the conditional faith and reciprocal acceptance of narrative reception are intrinsic to human communication and that FranT explores similar principles and their relations to love. The love between Dorigen and Aurelius gives way to the love between Dorigen and Arveragus, depicting Chaucer&#039;s ideal of marriage - ideal insofar as it &quot;confronts its own imperfections&quot; by accepting the risks that are intrinsic to all acts of human communication.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Faith, Ethics and Church : Writing in England, 1360-1409]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Explores faith, social and political action, and theology in late-medieval England, focusing on Chaucer, Gower, Langland, the Gawain poet, and Wyclif. Assesses how their ideas reflect Thomas Aquinas, Ockham, and John Ball and how they responded to such phenomena as the plague and the uprising of 1381. Chaucer is not the &quot;skeptical fideist&quot; nor a stoic Christian, but a political poet. In ClT, he imagines religious &quot;absences&quot; that lead to social tyranny, while SNT asserts religious opposition to social tyranny. In SNT and ParsT, the Eucharist is &quot;absent,&quot; reflecting the &quot;diminished role of the sacraments,&quot; in line with Wycliffite thought. The stoicism of lyrics such as Truth is inconsistent with the &quot;profoundly pessimistic representations of the contemporary Church&quot; in CT.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Argues that Griselda of ClT is not a type of Christ, because not all depictions of human suffering imitate Christ&#039;s passion. Texts by authors from Aquinas to Wycliffe, Arundel,and William Thorpe indicate that passive suffering is one of many competing models of faith, suggesting that Chaucer&#039;s religious tales may not affirm unquestioning faith and obedience.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Studies the Pardoner&#039;s and Wife of Bath&#039;s &quot;deviancy&quot; in light of late medieval theological and academic discourses, particularly the commentaries and summas of the scholastics, Lollard treatises ,and reactions to Lollard writings and trials. Neither character embodies Lollardy or Wycliffite heterodoxy, but each is radically unorthodox. The authority of the Pardoner is &quot;fallible&quot; because of his shocking abuses of sacerdotal privileges; the Wife&#039;s failings are linked to her usurpation of the rhetoric of clerical authority.]]></dcterms:description>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Topics include qualifications for preaching; administration and validity of the sacraments of baptism, penance ,the Eucharist,ordination, and marriage; indulgences; the role of intention; female clergy; the Pardoner&#039;s sexuality; the Wife&#039;s obscenity; and the loathly lady&#039;s discussion of gentility in relation to dominion. Though heterodox, the characters tell moral tales. Also comments on SNT, ClT, and Mel.]]></dcterms:description>

These devaluations of language mirror his corrupt mercantile practices and link ManT to the concerns with transformation in SNT, CYT, and ParsT.]]></dcterms:description>
