    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[The narrator of MerT evokes the same moral response from the audience as the authors of the &quot;Comedy.&quot;  Although the narrator appeals to the superiority of the audience over his dramatic characters, he perhaps admires their crudeness, which the audience finds contemptible.]]></dcterms:description>

Commings&#039; dissertation (1914) denying that Chaucer knew the &quot;Decameron&quot; and an influential article by Willard Farnham (1924) positing that the work was not known in England until 1566 both are speciously reasoned.  Chaucerian echoes of the framework and a dozen tales in the &quot;Decameron&quot; strongly suggest the contrary.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Chaucer is indebted to &quot;The Romance of the Rose&quot; for many of his techniques of irony, such as the juxtaposition of units not in themselves ironical, the exposure of hypocritical or false reasoning, the unreliable narrator, ironical digression, and exegetical travesties like those of the Wife of Bath.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[For Chaucer, the literary traditions of Ovid and Jerome created a dual image of woman as predator or victim.  Chaucer refines and deepens the &quot;double-sidedness&quot; of these traditions, bringing the polarized alternatives into complicating relation with each other.  Mann discusses the mock encomium on marriage in MerT and the Wife&#039;s tirade against her first three husbands in WBP.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Chaucer and the Art of Storytelling]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Koff argues that &quot;Chaucerian irony does not lead to Chaucer&#039;s own meaning.  Instead, Chaucer&#039;s deflecting self-characterizations and the characterization of the storyteller who &#039;cannot tell stories&#039; enable Chaucer to relinquish omniscience, thereby empowering all readers to recreate, as a mirror of themselves, the body social that reading any text creates.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Indeed, Koff suggests that Chaucer is best seen within a tradition of storytelling and textual interpretation (exemplified by the parables of Jesus and twelfth-century Victorine exegesis) that puts readers on the testing end of truth in fiction designed NOT as a code for something else.]]></dcterms:description>
