    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[After examining weather patterns during the Middle Ages, suggests that the late fourteenth century experienced lower than normal temperatures and increased precipitation that would have affected harvests. Since inclement weather plays a role in BD, TC, and MilT, speculates that the trope of the idealized spring setting, particularly in GP, acts as a type of escapism, or perhaps is Chaucer&#039;s response to a year of unusually good weather.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[The calming of an &quot;urban rabble&quot; in Aeneid 1.148-56 was a topos in reports and rumors that surrounded the uprising of 1381 and in reports of similar conflicts at Lynn and London in 1377. Baswell explores the &quot;anxieties, hopes, and tensions&quot; of the medieval uprisings and examines their relationships with conceptual analogues in rememberings of Troy, Carthage, and Rome. NPT links the uprising with these cities briefly and provocatively, and memories of it haunt late-medieval English versions of the Aeneas story.]]></dcterms:description>
