    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Did Chaucer Rearrange the Clerk&#039;s Envoy?]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Argues that the version of the Clerk&#039;s Envoy (4.1177-1212) found in the Ellesmere manuscript is the original version, modified by a scribe to compensate for an eye-skip error. Reassesses earlier arguments that the Ellesmere version is itself the revised version, adducing overall sense--especially pronoun references--to support the claim that Ellesmere provides the original. Also reassesses the status and placement of the so-called &quot;Host stanza&quot; (4.1212a-1212g).]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Assesses manuscript variants and stemmata, relations with source material, and &quot;scribal characteristics&quot; of PhyT to explain that they indicate scribal rather than authorial alteration. Argues that similar evidence, plus comparison with alterations from LGWP-F to LGWP-G and stylistic factors, indicate that Chaucer revised the Phy-Pard Link. Also argues that the epilogue to PardT shows no evidence of having been composed later the Tale itself.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Develops an allusion to Chaucer building a &quot;house of Fame&quot; in Gerard Legh&#039;s &quot;Accedence of Armorie&quot; (1562) and combines it with Chaucer&#039;s &quot;connections with&quot; the Inner Temple to suggest that the poet may have written HF &quot;for one of ritualistic functions&quot; of the Inner Temple, perhaps the Christmas Revels.
