- Review
- Generally uses Gower’s works as a source for historical speculations on the relationship of Richard II to poets; on levels of trilingualism and learning in the late fourteenth century; on contemporary notions of knighthood, courtesy, etc. Mentions all of Gower’s works, drawing comparisons with Chaucer and with Langland; examines CA most carefully.
