О книге

John Gower (c. 1330-1408) was an English poet, a contemporary of William Langland and a personal friend of Geoffrey Chaucer. He is remembered primarily for three major works, the Mirroir de la??Omme (c1376), Vox Clamantis (c1382), and Confessio Amantis; or, Tales of the Seven Deadly Sins (c1380), three long poems written in French, Latin, and English respectively, which are united by common moral and political themes. Gowera??s verse is by turns religious, political, historical, and moral-though he has been narrowly defined as a??moral Gowera?? ever since Chaucer graced him with the epithet. His primary mode is allegory, although he shies away from sustained abstractions in favour of the plain style of the raconteur. His earliest works were probably ballades in Anglo-Norman French, some of which may have later been included in his work the Cinkante Ballades (c. 1399). Gowera??s poetry has had a mixed critical reception. In the fifteenth century, he was generally regarded alongside Chaucer as the father of English poetry. Over the years, however, his reputation declined, largely on account of a perceived didacticism and dullness.
