    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Disagrees with Gardiner Stillwell&#039;s argument (1950) that PF cannot be read as a poem on the occasion of the betrothal of Prince Richard of England and Princess Marie of France because it is comic. Reviews Chaucer&#039;s other occasional poems (Truth, Venus, and Purse) that combine comedy with courtly compliment and suggests that PF functions similarly.]]></dcterms:description>

His changes, in effect, &quot;lift [the story] into the realms of romance, remote in time and space,&quot; with touches of a &quot;saint&#039;s life.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Identifies several examples of &quot;semi-legal&quot; or &quot;quasi-legal language&quot; and a &quot;legalistic turn of mind&quot; in the Franklin&#039;s association with the Man of Law, his exchanges with Host, and the &quot;explicit use of legal formulae&quot; in FranT. Argues that Chaucer&#039;s own familiarity with issues of &quot;behest,&quot; &quot;release&quot; and &quot;quit-claim&quot;--evident in documents related to Cecily Chaumpaigne--align with the Franklin&#039;s and reveal how subtly Chaucer transform life into art.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Assesses CT as a &quot;realized aesthetic whole&quot; with &quot;a unity and nuclear meaning which develops out of the &#039;cortex&#039; of pilgrimage.&quot; In GP, imagery of springtime and renewal underpin the motif of pilgrimage, with its social and religious implications; the pilgrims are lifelike and representational; the chronology, immediate and eternal; the narrator, both pilgrim and poet. The &quot;epilogue&quot; of the poem comprises ParsPT and Ret, and &quot;knits up&quot; the pilgrimage, reflecting the &quot;trespasses&quot; or &quot;sins&quot; of the pilgrims and the poet&#039;s own contrition.

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Acknowledges two problems in identifying manuscript families in traditional stemmatics (&quot;coincident agreement&quot; and &quot;contamination&quot;) and posits a third: &quot;the phenomenon of multiple manuscripts within a tradition which cannot be assigned to any family because there is no consistent pattern of agreement in introduced variants between them and other manuscripts.&quot; Clarifies the nature and implications of this third problem in four textual traditions: the &quot;Svipdagsmál,&quot; Dante&#039;s &quot;Commedia,&quot; the Greek New Testament, and the CT. For the latter, includes discussion of how variant analysis reveals that the Hengwrt manuscript (Hg) the Ellesmere (El), and Oxford, Christ Church 152 (Ch) &quot;form an extraordinarily close trio.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Examines the &quot;treatment&quot; Calchas &quot;receives in four successive versions of the Troilus story: Benoit de Ste. Maure&#039;s &#039;Roman de Troie&#039; (c. 1155), Guido de Columnis&#039; &#039;Historia Destructionis Troiae&#039; (1287), Boccaccio&#039;s &#039;Il Filostrato&#039; (1336),&quot; and Chaucer&#039;s&quot; TC. Compares and contrasts details of the plots and characterizations to evince &quot;a steady deterioration of Calchas’ character&quot; and his importance in the story. Though generally paralleling Boccaccio&#039;s version in respect to Calchas, Chaucer notably deviates from it by lessening the &quot;bitter hatred&quot; Calchas&#039; daughter holds for him.]]></dcterms:description>
