This study examines the various means of becoming empathetic and
using this knowledge to explain the epistemic import of the
characters' interaction in the works written by Chaucer,
Shakespeare, and their contemporaries. By attuning oneself to
another's expressive phenomena, the empathizer acquires an inter-
and intrapersonal knowledge that exposes the limitations of
hyperbole, custom, or unbridled passion to explain the profundity
of their bond. Understanding the substantive meaning of the
characters' discourse and narrative context discloses their
motivations and how they view themselves. The aim is to explore the
place of empathy in select late medieval and early modern
portrayals of the body and mind and explicate the role they play in
forging an intimate rapport.
