Summary "The Mirror of Literature, Amusement, and Instruction. Volume 13, No. 364, April…" is a periodical publication authored by various contributors, likely during the early 19th century, specifically in the late 1820s. This type of book serves as a literary magazine, providing a mix of educational content, literary criticism, and narratives intended for the amusement of its readers. The primary topics of discussion include biographical sketches of poets, analysis of literary works, and cultural commentary characteristic of the time. The issue features a prominent article that discusses the tomb of John Gower, whom Dr. Johnson referred to as "the father of English poetry." The text elaborates on Gower's life, his contributions to English literature, and his relationship with his contemporary, Geoffrey Chaucer. Further sections of the publication include amusing essays on various topics like kissing traditions and reflections on societal norms, as well as poetry and literary commentary. The overall tone combines both informative and entertaining elements, intended to engage readers with literary history while also providing light-hearted amusement.
