    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Developing Walter Benjamin&#039;s model of translation and seeking to &quot;rethink the dynamics of cross-cultural translation,&quot; Ginsberg explores how Chaucer&#039;s borrowings from and dependencies on Italian literature &quot;disarticulate&quot; the legacy of Dante, Boccaccio, and Petrarch. Chaucer negotiated much larger political and cultural differences in his translations of Italian than in his translations of French. Rather than simply following Italian tradition, he created his own Italian tradition, in which translation is hermeneutic and transformative and in which allegory and irony are interdependent. Ginsberg assesses the interactions among the Florentine poets (and Dante&#039;s use of Ovid), discussing how Chaucer reinterprets them in ManPT, MkT, ClT, and TC.]]></dcterms:description>

His biography and his works alike reveal &quot;submersion in the interests of power,&quot; so that the early complaints mythologize the &quot;ideal of the aristocratic good life&quot;; TC is an &quot;apology for the good life of erotic preoccupation&quot;; and CT gives voice to some dissidence, only to police and suppress it. Admirers and imitators of Chaucer emulated his servility and, in doing so, shaped his critical legacy.]]></dcterms:description>
