    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Argues for the &quot;strong intertextual presence&quot; of Machaut&#039;s &quot;Remede de Fortune&quot; in BD, reflective of developments in late medieval francophone and anglophone social history. Both poems combine praise for an idealized lady with an account of the lover&#039;s development, gently resisting the expectations of elegy.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Argues that the differing treatments of Morpheus in BD and Machaut&#039;s &quot;Fonteinne amoureuse&quot; &quot;reflect on the advantages and limitations of &#039;imitatio&#039; as a tool for authorial self-promotion.&quot; Underlying this reflection are contrasting strategies for harnessing poetic authority, either through literary history or through contemporary patronage.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Studies the rhetorical topos of exemplary lists of famous antique figures in BD, in comparison with contemporary uses of the device. Chaucer&#039;s lists are more than simply didactic or conventional, affirming &quot;chivalric and regal identity&quot; and thus participating in &quot;a language of fashionable prince-pleasing art.&quot; Includes consideration of LGW and PF.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Shows how the &quot;relationship between voice and identity&quot; is a preoccupation of both BD and one of its chief sources, Machaut&#039;s &quot;Dit de la fonteinne amoureuse.&quot; Highlights the formative influence of the composite &quot;Roman de la Rose&quot;--particularly its conjuring of an authorial &quot;je&quot;--on &quot;the powers and the limitations of the voice&quot; in the later narratives.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Outlines the numerous problems surrounding BD&#039;s dating, occasion, early transmission history, title, and text. Because of the small number and lateness of manuscript witnesses, BD evinces significant &quot;textual uncertainty&quot;; consequently, literary interpretation must maintain &quot;a proper awareness of the problems that inhere in the material evidence of its survival.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

Rejecting the popular association between consuming fiction and playing idle games, BD reclaims storytelling as &quot;active, productive, and restorative,&quot; thus critiquing &quot;medieval attitudes toward fiction.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Includes nine essays, plus a response, by various authors, with an index and an introduction by the editor. Argues for a reassessment of the critical relevance of BD, which has often been marginalized, as a work that is simultaneously &quot;multilingual&quot; and &quot;seminally &#039;English,&#039; &quot; emphasizing its internationalism and sophistication as a contribution to late medieval practices of vernacularity and ideas of authorship. Contains units on &quot;Books and Bodies&quot; and &quot;The Intertextual Duchess,&quot; focusing, respectively, on the poem&#039;s &quot;textual construction and internal dynamics&quot; and on its literary relationships as seen through a comparatist lens.

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Argues that Chaucer anticipates readings of Boethius&#039;s &quot;Consolation of Philosophy&quot; as centrally devotional rather than philosophical. Chaucer&#039;s word choices in Bo bring this emphasis to the fore, especially of the concluding lines of the work. Examines Chaucer&#039;s Boethian poems, eschewing the well-known pagan narrative Boethian poetry for the less-studied Christian poetry such as Truth and Form Age.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Considers the astrolabe as an instrument and Chaucer&#039;s Astr as a translation, correlating their &quot;transmedial&quot; features, which provoke &quot;alternate angles of view on instrumentality&quot; and interrogate relations between human and nonhuman epistemologies. Connects these concerns with metaphor and literary mimesis, anthropomorphism, hybridized gender in Astr, &quot;zoomorphic intermediaries&quot; in SqT and HF, and technologies of knowing.

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Argues that not just TC but also Anel has an important function in Henryson&#039;s &quot;Testament.&quot; Echoes of this poem affect judgment of Cresseid and Troilus, and the question of what constitutes &quot;truth,&quot; for lover, narrator, or reader.

NPT &quot;serves as&quot; Chaucer&#039;s Logic; FranT his Ethics; with Ret as &quot;a formal retraction of a formal retraction,&quot; through which we &quot;experience [Chaucer&#039;s] love for us&quot; by way of (un-)decidability.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Explores the connection between animals and poetry, arguing for an emphasis on poetry that describes animals. Maintains that poetry&#039;s openness to experimentation with language mirrors its depiction of a blurred boundary between the human and the animal. Moves from medieval to postmedieval poetry, connecting poetic depictions of animals from Chaucer to contemporary poets. In particular, focuses on animals in NPT to show what these allegorical depictions can convey about literal animals. Argues that NPT troubles this boundary between human and animal through the desire of Chanticleer.]]></dcterms:description>

Includes comments on Chaucer&#039;s &quot;careful onomatopoeic distinctions&quot; among Chauntecleer&#039;s &quot;different vocalizations&quot; in NPT, the eagle&#039;s vocality in HF, and the rhyme-royal form of Adam.]]></dcterms:description>

Mirroring the horizontal, non-linear organization of the poem&#039;s layout in medieval manuscripts, desire moves sideways across Th. Reading Th through cuteness shifts critical attention to questions of aesthetics and affect. Claims that features such as infantilization and feminization trigger both tender caretaking and sadistic aggression; the cute object is paradoxically held gently and squeezed violently.]]></dcterms:description>
