    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[FranT describes a true-love marriage in Boethian terms and impossible contradictions, in a language that strains for comprehensibility amidst paradox and conditions that tend to undo prior terms. Stability and union replace oppositions, dualities, verbal ambiguities, and dilemmas after two opposed natures (male and female) almost reach the breaking point. The couple&#039;s metaphorical child, Aurelius, withdraws as a result of Arveragus&#039;s masculine gentilesse and Dorigen&#039;s feminine compassion (which places her at the Tale&#039;s center).]]></dcterms:description>
