    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Contrasts medieval Augustinian views of translation with those of modern translation theory and practice, applying the former to the adaptation/translation of CkT found in Oxford, Bodleian Library, MS Bodley 686. Argues that the Bodley scribe constructed his version of the tale because, assuming that Chaucer &quot;intended to write a chastising narrative,&quot; he followed Augustinian practices and incorporated various features of fifteenth-century moral literary discourse in a Langlandian mode.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[In determining Chaucer&#039;s plan for CT, too much attention has been placed on the Ellesmere and Hengwrt manuscripts at the expense of the other eighty-one manuscripts, where the order of the tales may differ. In Ad3 (British Library MS Additional 35286), CkP and CkT fall between ManT and CYP; SNT, between SumT and ClP.

Since inclement weather plays a role in BD, TC, and MilT, speculates that the trope of the idealized spring setting, particularly in GP, acts as a type of escapism, or perhaps is Chaucer&#039;s response to a year of unusually good weather.]]></dcterms:description>

Baswell explores the &quot;anxieties, hopes, and tensions&quot; of the medieval uprisings and examines their relationships with conceptual analogues in rememberings of Troy, Carthage, and Rome. NPT links the uprising with these cities briefly and provocatively, and memories of it haunt late-medieval English versions of the Aeneas story.]]></dcterms:description>
