Review
"This dissertation will examine John Gower's 'Confessio Amantis' and illustrate the poem's dominant political theme. In addition, it will suggest the manner by which this political theme is structured through the use of a joined biblical and historical paradigm, and relate the political theme and structure to the courtly and penitential themes which have previously received a large share of attention in Gower studies."
