    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Separates medieval ideas of love (primarily Ovidian and Augustianian) from Romantic and post-Romantic ideas, and argues that Chaucer &quot;was unquestionably a man of his time--an orthodox member of the Church and a firm follower of the teachings of St. Augustine in matters of art as in ethics.&quot; In matters of love (especially in PF, TC, and KnT), he &quot; consistently subscribes to Augustinian doctrines of nature, grace, and sexual morality.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Chaucer the Man.]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Traces Chaucer&#039;s attention to his own authorial fame, putting it in the context of medieval anonymity, book production, and the &quot;idea of authorship.&quot; Compares and contrasts the narrators and attendant &quot;fictive illusion&quot; in his works, especially HF. TC, and CT, and observes growth in the development of an &quot;implied relationship&quot; between Chaucer and his audience that was like the one he shared with his contemporaries. Concludes that &quot;the style is the man himself&quot;--i.e., &quot;the most relevant [biographical] information we can have comes from the style of his works.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Chaucer responds to the uprising of 1381 by shifting blame for the underlying oppression from the ruling and judiciary figures to the Reeve, a rigorous despot over the lower classes. Chaucer does not write from a classless position; rather, he espouses aristocratic ideas and decries peasant aspiration. This attitude carries over from The General Prologue into the Tales, especially The Summoner&#039;s Tale.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Chaucer to Shakespeare, 1337-1580]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Gertz assesses 1337-1580 as the period of transition between the Middle Ages and the Early Modern era. Dynastic ambition, science, exploration, and disasters provide contexts and stimuli for the literature. In their rhetorical dexterity and highly crafted images, Chaucer and Shakespeare are exceptional writers, yet Chaucer was a diplomat and bureaucrat and Shakespeare was probably an actor as well as an entrepreneur. Much of the literature of the period reflects textured engagement of contemporary concerns, evident through close reading of rhetorical and semiotic systems. Chapter Two, &quot;Training, Religion and Treatises,&quot; discusses WBPT, and Chapter Five, &quot;Narrative and Lyric Poetry,&quot; discusses TC.]]></dcterms:description>

By the time of Urry&#039;s 1721 edition, the scholarly and popular tradition of the seventeenth century had coalesced in the common reader.]]></dcterms:description>
