    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Fortuna and Natura: A Reading of Three Chaucer Narratives.]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Studies the &quot;dynamic relationship&quot; between Fortuna and Natura in PhyT, ClT, and KnT, surveying in an Introduction (pp. 9-45) their presence elsewhere in Chaucer&#039;s works and his antecedents. In PhyT which &quot;approaches allegory&quot; the &quot;destructive forces of Fortuna&quot; are implied and &quot;roundly defeated,&quot; while &quot;Nature&#039;s love, though overt, is &quot;not always sufficient for human need.&quot; Walter and Griselda in ClT &quot;dramatize the differences between Fortuna&#039;s fickle tyranny and Natura&#039;s stable love,&quot; although Griselda transcends nature. Less schematic and more ambiguous than the other two Tales, KnT capitalizes on the opposition between nature and fortune to reinforce a Boethian outlook in &quot;delicate&quot; ways. The volume is concerned with source relations throughout.]]></dcterms:description>
