    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Male singers in Chaucer&#039;s works recurrently--perhaps inevitably--embody narcissism and receive &quot;brutal,&quot; scatological punishment as a result of their deserved, comic victimhood. Psychoanalytic understanding of love as &quot;affect&quot; and of song as gender-bending underpins readings of Ros, MilT (both Nicholas and Absolon), MerT, the Pardoner, PrT, Th, ManT, NPT, and TC. Chaucer&#039;s depictions of male singing (and poetry?) may be phobic.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Chaucer is a philosophical realist whose naïve narrators, tale-within-a-tale structuring, and focus on irony and linguistic slippage enable him to assert Truth while exposing the limitations of individual human perspectives.

She treats Chaucer as the &quot;text-book case of an &#039;author-translator&#039;&quot; (in contrast with Henry Lovelich) and suggests that the diversity and rich cultural context of Middle English complicate the notion of monolingualism, citing TC, LGW, and NPT.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Exemplified by those of Carolyn Dinshaw and Elaine Tuttle Hansen, feminist critiques of E. Talbot Donaldson&#039;s scholarship are curiously similar to D. W. Robertson&#039;s critiques of that scholarship. These critiques find fault in its subjectivity and thus overlook Donaldson&#039;s authorial persona: a &quot;fictional first person&quot; who &quot;models a way into the text for readers, who are, like him&quot; --and like Chaucer-- &quot;both gendered roles and personal facts.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Chaucerian Conflict: Languages of Antagonism in Late Fourteenth-Century London]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Explores how social division and civic dissent were articulated and addressed in late fourteenth-century literature. As evident in HF, TC, and CT, Chaucer was persistently interested in the slipperiness of truth and in the power of language. Figures such as Fame and the Host, who try to control and regulate discourse, expose the difficulties inherent in trying to limit what people can say. In the house of Rumour and on the Canterbury pilgrimage, discursive conflict can run riot, resisting authoritative meaning or peaceful resolution. Mel suggests that antagonism will always force its way to the surface and that reconciliation can at most be a temporary, politic state of affairs.]]></dcterms:description>
