    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Compares the &quot;structures of feeling&quot; in PrT and Gower&#039;s &quot;Tale of the Jew and the Pagan,&quot; particularly their interrelations of pity, violence, justice, antisemitism, and affective response. Suggests that the two authors reworked their versions at the same time, and that, while Gower&#039;s version is attentive &quot;to how pity might ease the abuses of a law and justice gone awry,&quot; Chaucer had greater &quot;distrust of pity.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Chaucer&#039;s Pardoner: Food, Drink, and the Discourse of Desecration.]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Builds on previous readings of PardT that identify its descriptions of food, especially bread and wine, as part of its parody of the Christian mass and Eucharist. Demonstrates that Chaucer uses specifically Wycliffite terms when referring to food and the body. The Pardoner&#039;s sacrilegious imagery includes not only desecrations of Christian ritual but attacks on the very body of Christ. Concludes that the effect of the Pardoner&#039;s performance is to &quot;evoke in the reader or listener a Christless world, violate, broken by sin.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Shows that &quot;medical models for textual interpretation&quot; structure Part 6 of CT. Assesses violent, authoritative models of medical cure posed in the GP description of the Physician; interrogates   literary interpretation as self-repair in PhyT; and discloses queer, consensual models for reading and repair in PardPT that undercut normative cure and authoritative interpretation. Theories by Eli Clare and by Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick serve as &quot;critical poles with which to navigate the medicalized reading dynamic&quot; of Part 6.]]></dcterms:description>
