Written in an era when clerical corruption was a key concern for polemicists such as Richard FitzRalph and John Wyclif, as well as satirical poets such as John Gower, William Langland, and Geoffrey Chaucer, the Gawain poems feature an explicit attack on hypocritical priests in the opening lines of Cleanness as well as more subtle critiques embedded within depictions of flawed priest-like characters."-- OP - 255 CN - PN686.G3 .C367 2018eb SN - 9781580443081 SN - 1580443087 SN - 1580443079 SN - 9781580443074 KW - Gawain : (Legendary character) KW - Gawain-Dichter : ca. 14.Jh.
