Studies in John Gower

*Studies in John Gower* is a translation of Maria Wickert's *Studien zu John Gower*, the book that began the modern study of the *Vox Clamantis*. It is a monograph in six chapters, the first five on various aspects of the *Vox* - textual development, the vision of the Peasants' Revolt, influence of the medieval sermon, the open letter to Richard II, world view - and the sixth a penetrating study of Gower's narrative technique in the *Confessio Amantis.*
