    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Argues that sodomy in medieval literature must be understood as an &quot;unspecified plurality of acts and intentions,&quot; which includes women as well as men. Female sodomy occupies the &quot;silent place in the discourse&quot; that must be acknowledged in modern discussion to understand more fully the range and nuances of medieval gender anxieties and to avoid complicity with medieval misogyny. Lochrie considers sodomy in ParsT, Pauline tradition, theological commentary, and Alan of Lille.]]></dcterms:description>

In particular, &quot;peple&quot; is nearly always negative; &quot;folk&quot; is either neutral or positive. In Chaucer&#039;s translations (e.g., Bo), &quot;folk&quot; normally translates as &quot;gens&quot; or its cognates, while &quot;peple&quot; translates as &quot;vulgus,&quot; &quot;populus,&quot; or their cognates. In TC and CT, &quot;folk&quot; refers to lovers; the Miller, Reeve, and Wife of Bath do not use &quot;peple&quot; at all. In ClT, &quot;peple&quot; refers to the citizens of Saluzzo, but Griselde is among the &quot;folk.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>
