Talk:John Gower
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hello,
I am proofing the works of John Gower with Distributed_Proofreaders, aiming to do an ebook available on Project Gutenberg. The precise book is "Complete Works of John Gower", with Macaulay as an editor.
in this book, one of the text is called "Mirour de l'omme or Speculum Hominis". It is slighty different that what is written on the article, which is "Mirrour de l'homme, or Speculum Meditantis". I am by no mean an expert so I can't judge, but I would like to know who is right.

- They're all right. :)
- Mirour de l'omme is probably the more common spelling of the French title of the work, so it may be worth changing to that in the Wikipedia article, but both forms are found in the literature. As for the Latin titles, Gower used both forms himself, so we should be mentioning both here. — Haeleth Talk 01:08, 8 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Gower in "Pericles"
Can anyone confirm this is the same John Gower who is dramatised by Shakespeare in Pericles, Prince of Tyre? AndyJones 19:52, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
