- Description
- Compares Chaucer's WBT and Gower's "Tale of Florent" as indices to the authors' social and moral outlooks. Whereas Gower consistently emphasizes maintaining a hierarchical status quo, Chaucer's concern for the individual and his recurrent ambiguities indicate a more complex philosophy.
