List of subjects and tales in Confessio Amantis (original) (raw)

This index is based on Macaulay’s marginal notations, which are a running analysis of the contents of the Confessio Amantis, a 33,000-line Middle English poem by John Gower. These have been used for subdivisions of the work in order to break it into smaller, more usable units and to serve as a very rough index of contents. Some changes from the Harvard version have been made for Wikipedia purposes. * links to the Wikipedia version of Gower's stories have been added. * spelling of names follows Gower rather than modern usage. (This facilitates searching within CA.)
