    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Political theory from Alain de Lille and Aristotle underlies PF, and events of the Good Parliament (1376) are reflected in it. Chaucer&#039;s Priapus and Venus allude to Edward III and Alice Perrers, while Nature&#039;s parliament is Chaucer&#039;s political ideal and his depiction of proper aristocratic behavior.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[This study of madness in Middle English literature generally mentions Chaucer only in passing, but includes a brief discussion of a &quot;pedestrian and highly traditional account of Nebuchadnezzer&quot; in MkT. Clearly based on the Book of Daniel, the account is marked &quot;by several factual errors&quot; and &quot;clear echoes&quot; of the commentary tradition; it&#039;s &quot;dullness and conservatism are pardonable only if they are seen as an attempt to fit tale to teller.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Negotiating Violence at the Feast in Medieval British Texts.]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[From Elmes&#039;s abstract: &quot;Making use of theoretical underpinnings from anthropology and history that characterize the feast as a culturally essential event and medieval violence as a rational and strategically-employed tool of constraint, coercion, and manipulation, I convert the essentially historical question of the cultural importance of feasts into a literary one by close reading feasting scenes and their aftermath in order to consider how the writers in medieval England used the motif of violence at or following the feast to illuminate, critique, and offer correction to social, political, and religious issues tied to the specific concerns of justice, loyalty, and treason within a community. Looking at texts ranging from the Anglo-Saxon epic &#039;Beowulf,&#039; the Welsh &#039;Mabinogion,&#039; and Latin &#039;Historia Regum Britanniae&#039; to chronicle-based works by Geoffrey Chaucer and John Gower, the Middle English Arthurian romances &#039;Sir Gawain and the Green Knight&#039; and Sir Thomas Malory&#039;s &#039;Le Morte Darthur,&#039; the Old Norse &#039;Clari&#039;s Saga,&#039; and outlaw tales of Robin Hood, Gamelyn, and Hereward the Wake, I demonstrate through a comparative approach centered on interpretation and analysis supported with contextual historical evidence that violence associated with the feast is typically presented according to genre expectations and mirrors cultural anxieties that are specific to the community in which and for which a given text was produced.&quot; Includes analysis of the &quot;Man of Law&#039;s Tale&quot; and its analogues, and comments on the apocryphal &quot;Tale of Gamelyn.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>
