- Review
- A general introduction to literature in England during the Middle Ages, in which Gower’s name appears as a contemporary, friend, and competitor with Chaucer, Langland, etc. Points out that Gower puts himself in his poetry as a character, that he includes his name in certain poems (unspecified) in the cryptic pattern of Cynewulf.
