    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Argues that friendship in TC &quot;is an idea that matters very much,&quot; both as a &quot;value&quot; and an &quot;element in the plot.&quot; Throughout the poem, Chaucer depicts various friendship relations (support, protection, counsel), strengthening those found in Boccaccio&#039;s &quot;Filostrato&quot; with materials found in the &quot;Roman de la Rose,&quot; rooted in Cicero, Boethius, and Christian tradition. Although noble and gentle, courtly friendship in TC--like courtly love--is shown to be limited by its worldly goals and limitations, superficial at times and always insufficient.]]></dcterms:description>

The power of nature and the &quot;superfluity&quot; of language recur as themes throughout. Chaucer focuses on how nature constrains social hierarchy and sexuality in PF.
