    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Classical and medieval antifeminist texts disparagingly compare women and animals. In WBP, Alisoun &quot;redeploys animal similes&quot; to claim the privileges of animal-like status because she is naturally crafty and sly, impatient, and cannot be held responsible. Alisoun also &quot;animalizes&quot; Jankyn by comparing him to a lion and sheep, &quot;deflating notions of masculine supremacy&quot; and celebrating humans&#039; animal nature.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Literary and historical contexts modify the presentation of the Griselda story in its many versions, reflecting a broad range of views on women and marriage.  Chaucer&#039;s version raises questions about the exemplary value of Griselda in religious and political contexts, challenging the way her story had traditionaly been told.  Nonetheless, the responses of the Host and the Merchant contribute to her &quot;continuing life&quot; as &quot;an icon of the ideal wife.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Surveys the range of religious and philosophical concerns and attitudes of late fourteenth-century England, and gauges Chaucer&#039;s investment in them. More moral than dogmatic, Chaucer &quot;never discloses his commitment in religion&quot; and &quot;offers few judgements,&quot; although, as a story-teller, he is concerned with causation and its relations with human freedom, a &quot;theological preoccupation of his time,&quot; most clearly treated in TC.  Includes commentary on the relative Aristotelianism and Augustinianism of Duns Scotus, Ockham, Bradwardine, and Wyclif, discovering Chaucer and the latter to be &quot;curiously complementary.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

Like many advocates of ecclesiastical reform, the Nun idealizes the primitive Church, but the Canon&#039;s Yeoman&#039;s performance undercuts the idea that worldly decline can be reversed.

Barr includes significant attention to liturgical concerns, the phrase &quot;by rote&quot; (in contrast to &quot;in herte&quot;), and the interpretive process of &quot;inferencing.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>
