Argues that there is &quot;devastating satire&quot; of the Prioress in GP and in PrT: the Tale fits the teller insofar as it is &quot;devotional and inspirational,&quot; but the Jews&#039; lack of agency in the Tale, along with its brutality and sentimentality, manifest the teller&#039;s &quot;arrested development.&quot; Includes comparisons with sources and with SNT.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Revisits the concept of &quot;Chaucerian tragedy,&quot; considering KnT, MLT, and NPPT, as well as TC and MkT, and explores the faults or faultlessness of Fortune&#039;s victims in these works, the moral sophistication of the narrators of the tales, classical notions of Fate and error, and Christian notions of Providence and Original Sin. Argues that Chaucer&#039;s views are fundamentally consistent with Boethian, Augustinian notions of &quot;Christian tragedy&quot; which involves the &quot;fortunate fall&quot; and Providential joy after sorrow, linking both with the liturgical &quot;Exultet,&quot; i.e., &quot;the deacon&#039;s chant in the Easter Vigil.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>
