Editorial Reviews
Review
"A useful reading with the context of other coeval courtly works." --Speculum
"Offers fine reading of many tales; effectively creates a new thesaurus of core political concerns in the politics of the great household; and with the focus on instances in the Confessio, usefully enlarges and enriches inquiry into Gower's political orientation." --Journal of English and Germanic Philology
