Chaucer&#039;s Parson and Langland&#039;s Will counterpoint the poets&#039; vice-ridden clergymen.

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Poetic truth cannot be confined by rigidly orthodox theories of literary criticism.  D. W. Robertson, Jr.&#039;s reading of ClT, for example, as a moral fable of &quot;the duties of the Christian soul as it is tested by its Spouse&quot; effectively inhibits any further, creative interpretation of the tale by fossilizing it as a matter of merely historical interest. ]]></dcterms:description>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[However, a comparison of the poem with its source reveals that Chaucer repeatedly emphasizes the sufferings of Griselda against the ultimately meaningless trials imposed on her by Walter.  The tale is instead a compelling study in freedom of thought and man&#039;s reaction to tyranny.]]></dcterms:description>
