    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Chaucer&#039;s Clerk and the Wife of Bath on the Subject of &quot;Gentilesse.&quot;]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Treats the theme of &quot;gentilesse&quot; in ClT as a response to its presence in WBT, arguing that it helps to characterize the Clerk, underlies Walter&#039;s decisions, and encouraged Chaucer to choose &quot;precisely this legend for exactly this spot&quot; in CT. Comments on the theme in Dante, Petrarch, and &quot;Le Livre Griseldis,&quot; and argues that ClT sets the Wife&#039;s and Dante&#039;s concepts of gentillesse &quot;against one another,&quot; an aspect of the humor of the Clerk&#039;s envoy.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[The Central Episode in Chaucer&#039;s &quot;Troilus.&quot;]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Rejects claims that Criseyde expected to surrender herself to Troilus when she went to Pandarus&#039;s house in Book 3 of TC. Examines questions of plot, detail, and emphasis, and argues that her actions were neither fated nor dependent upon prior decision, that Pandarus&#039;s machinations capitalized on the change in weather, and that Troilus merited her love. Considers the episode in light of courtly love and briefly contrasts aspects of Chaucer&#039;s story with those of Boccaccio&#039;s.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Compares the depictions and analyses of love in TC, Annie Dillard&#039;s &quot;The Maytrees&quot; (2007), Thomas Aquinas, and modern psychologies of love, arguing that their underlying concerns with conflicts between passions and choices indicate that sustained love requires recurrent rituals, linking them with liturgical practices.

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Analyzes the 125 instances of the modals &quot;shall&quot; and &quot;will&quot; in GP, KnT, and WBPT in their &quot;syntactic, semantic, and pragmatic aspects,&quot; gauging degrees of modality, contingency, futurity, grammaticalization, speech-act functions (e.g., prediction, promising, threatening, questioning, etc.), and discourse markers. Observes, generally, that &quot;shall&quot; has a wider variety of functions than does &quot;will,&quot; and calls for further analysis.]]></dcterms:description>
