		The dreamer-poet¡¯s infinite act of reading and writing in the Parlement was not merely a daring narrative device, but also a ¡°sign¡± bearing serious theological as well as socio-political implications on the part of Chaucer with his singular interest in the hope to achieving a commune profit.
		In the Parlement, the author is not an indefinite source of significations which fill a book, on the contrary, he serves a certain functional principle by which the reader/critic limits, excludes, and chooses; in short, by which the reader/dreamer exercises free manipulation, free composition, decomposition, and recomposition of a dream/book.

		The House of Fame and The Parlement of Foules, also dream poems, show the influence of Dante and of Giovanni Boccaccio, whose works Chaucer probably encountered on his first journey to Italy.
		The unfinished House of Fame gives a humorous account of the poet's frustrating journey in the claws of a giant golden eagle (the idea is from Dante) to the palace of the goddess Fame.
		In The Parlement he witnesses an inconclusive debate about love among the different classes of birds.

		The connection of the De Planctu Naturae with Chaucer's Parlement of Foules and with the Roman de la Rose, the increasing frequency of references to it in works of scholarship, and its inaccessibility save in its peculiar Latin, have furnished the reasons for this translation.
		Such a great body of foul men roam and riot along the breadth of the whole earth by whose seducing contact chastity herself is poisoned.

		The course will examine the literary form of dream vision, attempting to integrate--or at least recognize--formal, psychological, and cultural modes of assessing this poetry.
		Three Middle English works provide the course's center: Chaucer's Book of the Duchess and Parlement of Foules, and Langland's Piers Plowman will be read within the genre's particular and shifting literary features and effects.
		Weekly topics will explore cultural and intellectual contexts--the influence of dream theory, medical practices, and law--as well as literary issues--the subjectivity of the dreamer, vernacularity and reception, and gender readings.

		Chaucer drew upon it for the Knight's Tale, but it is at any rate arguable that his retrenchment of its perhaps inordinate length was judicious, and that what he gave was better than what he borrowed.
		Still, that it had such a redactor as Chaucer is no small testimony to its merit; nor was it only in the Knight's Tale that he was indebted to it: the description of the Temple of Love in the Parlement of Foules is taken almost word for word from it.
