Includes a discussion of TC (pp. 44-73) which focuses on courtly love, the romance genre, and Chaucer&#039;s manipulations of them to produce his &quot;antiromance&quot; which is novelistic in the ways it engages its audience.]]></dcterms:description>

Claims that the dropping of inflectional   &quot;-e&quot; in &quot;high&quot; and &quot;sly&quot; in poetry by Chaucer, Gower, and Hoccleve should not be understood as a linguistic shift, for it follows the &quot;metrical subrule,&quot; whereby the inflectional &quot;-e&quot; is dropped when a weak adjective precedes a word with &quot;aft stress.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Treats the scansion of &quot;high&quot; and &quot;sly&quot; in works by Chaucer, Gower, and Hoccleve--all &quot;careful metrists&quot;--as evidence of the demise of &quot;inflection of monosyllabic adjectives (final -e for weak and plural adjectives).&quot; Posits that irregularities in usage are due to the &quot;vulnerability of schwa after front vowels,&quot; and offers several cautions for editors.]]></dcterms:description>
