I think the table of content is modern. It says "rebound in 1964" after all. This is what seems to be the first page of the text https://digital.nls.uk/early-m

I recognize latin characters in what my classmates called "gothic font" in highschool. But I can't recognize the language.

It's definitely English (modulo several centuries of spelling and words that have fallen away). Many words are recognizable but I can't read a whole sentence either - except maybe "But myself tho me to blame". Lots of conventions have changed: you really would need to study and practice to be able to make it through this, but not to the extent of learning a whole other language from scratch.
