    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[As a number of bawdy lyrics attest, the comparison of the Wife&#039;s hat in GP (1.470-71) to a &quot;bokeler&quot; and &quot;targe&quot; suggest sexual and martial overtones. Through the intervening metaphor to joust/to have intercourse, both buckler and target signify what Alison refers to as her &quot;bele chose.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[In medieval tradition, sodomy was associated with misinterpretation. When seen in this light, Absolon&#039;s sodomizing of Nicholas in MilT both reinforces heteronormativity and decries the system upon which it is based. The Miller&#039;s reference to &quot;Goddes pryvete&quot; (MilP 1.3164) is part of his rebellion against the Knight and the order he embodies.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Examines the differing ways Hoccleve, Lydgate, and Henryson responded to and imitated Chaucer, observing their sensitivity to his metatextual concerns and his sense of literary history.  These three authors do not comprise a single and unified response to Chaucer, and therefore challenge our notions of a unified &quot;idea&quot; of English literary tradition.]]></dcterms:description>
