Piers the Ploughman

The work of an obscure fourteenth-century cleric, Piers the Ploughman is concerned with the largest of all poetic themes, the meaning of man`s life in relation to his ultimate destiny. This spiritual allegory is set against a colourful background of teeming medieval life between the `Tower of Truth` and the `Dungeon of Falsehood`. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005.
