The Complete Works of John Gower is a book that contains the entire body of work by the English poet, John Gower. Gower was a contemporary of Geoffrey Chaucer and is considered one of the major poets of the 14th century. The book includes his three major works: Confessio Amantis, Vox Clamantis, and Mirour de l'Omme. Confessio Amantis is a long poem in which a lover confesses his sins to a priest, while Vox Clamantis is a political poem that comments on the Peasants' Revolt of 1381. Mirour de l'Omme is a moral poem that explores the virtues and vices of human beings. In addition to these works, the book also includes Gower's shorter poems, including his ballads and lyrics. The Complete Works of John Gower provides readers with a comprehensive look at the life and work of one of the most important poets of the Middle Ages.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
