The Confessio Amantis was completed in 1390 and written at the command of King Richard II by John Gower (1325-1408). Gower wrote three major works: the Confessio Amantis in English, the Vox Clamantis in Latin and the Speculum Meditantis in French. All three books are shown on Gower's elaborate, decorated tomb in Southwark Cathedral. The Confessio Amantis was revised to include a dedication to Henry IV and other changes between 1390 and c.1393. Gower's literary reputation was only matched by that of Chaucer, with whom he is frequently linked by later writers. The two poets did know each other, though Gower, possibly a lawyer by profession, was given power of attorney by Chaucer when he went to Italy in 1378.
