    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Gregory&#039;s Moralia in Job not only associates Job&#039;s wife with Eve as the archetypal temptress but also links her voice to the feminine speaking of poetry, with its imagistic power to move, delight, and (mis)instruct.  Chaucer refashions her in CT in the double form of Alisoun of Bath and patient Griselda, using the stories of these two Joban wives to dramatize his own troubled relationship to his literary inheritance, especially Latin clerical writings.]]></dcterms:description>

Capgrave seems interested in issues raised by Chaucer but not, like Hoccleve and Lydgate, in &quot;becoming&quot; a Chaucerian.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Gardner strikingly alters &quot;Beowulf&quot; by granting Grendel spiritual development, by portraying the absurdity of war, and by undercutting the validity of poetic making.  The changes transforms epic material into an elusive genre characterized by its tone.  Like Chaucer&#039;s NPT, it develops this tone by a gently skeptical treatment of traditional wisdom and a parody of rhetoric.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Proposes that the so-called &quot;quarrel&quot; between Chaucer and Gower found in MLP pertains to their uses of Ovidian, fabliau-like material, reading several tales of &quot;Confessio Amantis&quot; as experiments in &quot;fabliauesque&quot; narrative, purged of &quot;schoolboy humour&quot; and obscene language. Argues that echoes of Chaucer&#039;s fabliaux in Gower&#039;s purged tales indicate that influence generally &quot;flowed from Chaucer to Gower&quot; in this regard; ManT, however, might be a response to Gower&#039;s &quot;Tale of Hercules and Faunus.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Describes the development of John Gower&#039;s critical reputation, his life records, his literary career (including attention to manuscripts, sequence of composition, and revisions), the major social and political themes of his works, and his relationship with Chaucer as a friend and a literary influence. Discussion of Chaucer recurs throughout the volume, and the last section (pp. 204-302) focuses on Gower&#039;s influence on Chaucer, particularly the latter&#039;s development as a social critic in imitation of the older poet, even though he replaced Gower&#039;s complaints against the estates with more fully realized estates satire. This latter section aligns each of Chaucer&#039;s major works with those by Gower, exploring their crossing influences and exchanges.]]></dcterms:description>

Yeager develops the views of previous Gower critics and considers the complete corpus of the poet, concentrating on Confessio Amantis. ]]></dcterms:description>
