"The Complete Works of John Gower, Volume 2: The English Works" by John Gower is a collection of literary works written in the late 14th century. This volume primarily features "Confessio Amantis", which is a poetic narrative exploring themes of love, morality, and societal issues through a confessional dialogue between a lover and the priest Genius.
