    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Assesses Jos Charles&#039;s &quot;transpoetics&quot; in &quot;feeld&quot; (2018), showing how the collection of poems capitalizes on the &quot;historical ruptures&quot; and other constitutive features of Middle English, mimicking its &quot;malleability and fluidity.&quot; Also suggests that Charles&#039;s technique is analogous to medieval musical &quot;hocket&quot; and explores how Charles&#039;s dramatic monologue &quot;reconceives&quot; the Wife of Bath&#039;s  in WBT, assessing several resonances.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Explores how the 2003 BBC adaptation of MLT and Patience Agbabi&#039;s &quot;Telling Tales&quot; (2004) &quot;respond to the xenophobic and imperialist ideology of the original,&quot; challenging the relationship that MLT &quot;posits between familial and national loyalties,&quot; reconfiguring &quot;racial, familial, and religious identity,&quot; and confronting audiences with the importance of remembering as well as interrogating the past. Links the narratives with representations of Thomas Jefferson&#039;s &quot;role as father and forebear&quot; and Chaucer&#039;s as &quot;father&quot; of English poetry.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Assesses the &quot;formal organising principle&quot; of Hoccleve&#039;s &quot;Series&quot; in light of that of CT (and LGW). Argues that CT is &quot;not just incomplete, but incompleteable&quot; (citing the additivity entailed in CYP), explaining it as Chaucer&#039;s response to the conditions of the material production of his work and the inevitability of his own death. Hoccleve&#039;s &quot;Series&quot; is also &quot;variable and open-ended&quot; but its incompleteness is constrained by &quot;the way the text presents authorship.&quot;]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Argues that &quot;because Hoccleve&#039;s metre cannot persuasively be reconciled with any known metrical system, it must be allowed its own category.&quot; Details Chaucer&#039;s metrical &quot;template&quot; and shows how Hoccleve varies it to create his own, although influenced by that of John Walton in his verse translation of Boethius. Hoccleve&#039;s and Walton&#039;s verse &quot;prefigure modern iambic pentameter&quot; more clearly than does Chaucers.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Shows how the &quot;framed first-person narrative with which [Hoccleve&#039;s] &quot;Regiment&quot; begins is a reconfiguration rather than a straightforward rejection of Chaucer&#039;s dream poetry.&quot; While both authors use dream-vision conventions to engage previous authors and texts, Hoccleve is concerned with &quot;contemporary political and religious discourses&quot; and his &quot;distinctive self-authorising strategy . . . involves both an imitation and a pointed refusal of Chaucer&#039;s dream poems,&quot; especially their effacements of their narrators&#039; poetic skills.]]></dcterms:description>

Includes discussion of Chaucer&#039;s decision to write in English (as reflected in LGWP and in Eustace Deschamps&#039;s ballade in praise of Chaucer as a &quot;translateur&quot;), John Shirley&#039;s and John Lydgate&#039;s views of Chaucer as a cultural translator, and the importance of formes fixes in understanding canon formation and Chaucer as a &quot;laurel&quot; poet.

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Assesses how Chaucer&#039;s references to Alain de Lille&#039;s works in HF, 985–89 and PF, 315–18 distinguish his own poetic project from the Neoplatonic ideals that Alain represents, preferring worldly tidings to the spiritual wisdom of the empyrean, and seeking &quot;common profit,&quot; not in Ciceronian service to the state but in dedication to natural procreation. Clarifies Neoplatonic idealism (rooted in Plato&#039;s &quot;Timaeus&quot;) and Chaucer&#039;s skeptical attitude toward it as a late medieval Aristotelian work.]]></dcterms:description>

Includes assessment of possible routes for Chaucer&#039;s initial access to DC (through travel and otherwise) and contrasts the poets&#039; uses of the vernacular and their attitudes toward the literary legacy of Rome, especially Statius and Virgil. Reviews connections between DC and HF, TC, MkT, and other works, with an extended discussion of parallels between Criseyde and Dante&#039;s Francesca.
