    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[The antecedent of &quot;hyre&quot; in PF 284 must be Venus rather than Diana. This reading reveals the logic of Chaucer&#039;s placement of Callisto and Atalanta at the head of his list of famous lovers and leads &quot;inexorably to the conclusion that one wastes one&#039;s life in the service of Venus and that Chaucer has inverted the logic of male desire.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>
