    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[The Language of the Hengwrt Manuscript]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Focuses on spelling in the Hengwrt manuscript (Hg) in light of the development of London English (from Type II to III), especially in comparison with spelling in the Ellesmere manuscript (El). Though the two manuscripts are closely related, Hg shows greater variation than El and is closer to Chaucer&#039;s own habits. El reduced early forms of &quot;though&quot; and increased the northernisms of RvT.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Examines characteristic features of the two similar scribal hands of CT manuscript En1, correcting errors and emphases in Manly and Rickert&#039;s analysis (1940).  The scribes appear initially to have divided their labors before Scribe 2 completed and corrected Scribe 1&#039;s portion as well as his own.  The dialect is from near Colchester.  The date is &quot;the mid-to-late second quarter of the fifteenth century.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

The disjunctions of his tale occur at the points where woman&#039;s role and identity are problematic to the patriarchal ideology, and the Man of Law has a profound stake in suppressing threats to the patriarchal order.]]></dcterms:description>

In each, an individual criticizes his or her community to the members of a different, markedly less local community. The two texts suggest the precariousness of individual and community self-definitions, and their tensions complicate the distinction between &quot;medieval&quot; and &quot;modern,&quot; suggesting the possibility of a distinctly &quot;late medieval&quot; selfhood.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[The Legacy of Apollo: Antiquity, Authority, and Chaucerian Poetics]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Surveys the figure of Apollo in classical and medieval traditions, focusing on the figure in Chaucer&#039;s works as an embodiment of the poet&#039;s understandings of poetic authority. Chaucer &quot;mythologized a new idea of authorship in English,&quot; escaping scholastic formulations of poetic authority and exploring the role of the poet as &quot;&#039;vates,&#039; inspired vessel of truth,&quot; a &quot;proto-humanist&quot; outlook anchored in classical tradition. Chaucer&#039;s Apollo is more Ovidian than Virgilian, although Chaucer explores the latter version in TC. In Fragment 5 of CT (SqT and FranT), Apollo is a figure of poetic inspiration, conceived in a way that prompted Chaucer&#039;s descendants to regard him as such. In ManT, the depiction of Apollo implies that readers are responsible for shaping poetic authority.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Chaucer and Henryson use the bestiaries in different ways. Chaucer only hints at the allegorical potential of his animals in CT and PF, although he does capitalize on familiar allegorizations in his similes and symbols. More directly, Henryson &quot;applies the technique of allegorical interpretations of animals&quot; that is found in bestiaries.]]></dcterms:description>

LGWP introduces a method for reconceptualizing invention, and the legends dramatize the process by which affect and invention collapse into emotion and poetry. The poem exposes the discourses that shape late medieval ideas of gender and the affect that infuses those discourses with power.]]></dcterms:description>
