    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Explores how medieval travel writers &quot;imagine storytelling and merchandising as analogous enterprises,&quot; how they intersect with &quot;gender ideology&quot; wherein &quot;texts are imagined as both feminine corpora and feminized commodities,&quot; and how the Man of Law&#039;s aversion to incest can be linked with &quot;anxieties&quot; about poetic properties and succession. Shows that those anxieties are Chaucer&#039;s own, evident by contrast with Boccaccio&#039;s tale of Alatiel, and haunted by the critical fiction of Chaucer&#039;s rivalry with Gower.]]></dcterms:description>
