Mission Statement
The Gower Project is an international network of scholars. We offer online tools for research, a translation wiki, a blog on recent scholarly issues, and an online open-access publication that reaches beyond Gower studies, Accessus: A Journal of Premodern Literature and New Media. Our collaboration augments web-based resources on Gower, includes cutting edge theoretical readings of his work, and provides a welcoming environment for all scholars. Gower Project members have established an inclusive professional community in which research and literary interpretations from a wide variety of perspectives enrich the field and promote the relevance of Gower’s poems. Making these perspectives available on the web, we intend to increase accessibility for the many participants in Gower studies worldwide.
