- Review
- It is the “central thing” to our reading experience of Gower that his ethical content, didactic purpose, structure, representation of romantic love, narrative, and poetic techniques are medieval. Examines each in relation to each other, and as examples of “medieval” modes of thought. [RFY1981]
