    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Briefly mentions Chaucer in a discussion about the literary influences on Milton. John  Lane--who  continued  Chaucer&#039;s SqT--may have helped to incite Milton&#039;s interest in chivalry and tournaments. Malory is also a likely influence, although never named in Milton&#039;s work, which may be because his name did not carry the cultural  cachet of Chaucer and Spenser, whom  he does name.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[In KnT, Chaucer presents three conceptions of knighthood, each arising from individual desires that displace social responsibility.  Arcite and Palamon&#039;s rivalry is based in mimetic desire for ontological being.  Theseus arbitrates their rivalry by ritualizing the violence such desire engenders.  He thus defines Arcite&#039;s death as a necessary sacrifice that restores communal order.]]></dcterms:description>

As a result of this &quot;mimetic form,&quot; which parallels the lovers&#039; experience, the process &quot;authenticates through form the quality of the events narrated.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

Like CT, the stained-glass images evoke a progression from &quot;secular comfort to spiritual healing&quot; involving diverse social representatives.
