Product Description
The late-medieval movement into “vernacular theology,” as it has come to be called, inspired many forms of literary expression in all the languages of Europe. Juxtaposing a rich variety of texts, the contributors to this volume consider hagiography, translations of and commentaries on scripture, accounts of visionary experiences, and devotional literature. Their essays illuminate encounters with the divine mediated through language, bringing into play a diversity of national cultures and disciplinary points of view. They also engage vital social and political issues connected with religious experience, including challenges to authority, reinterpretations of texts, and renegotiations of gender roles.

Four of the essays deal directly with biblical literatue, and two explore translation in terms of pictorial art. The Bible, as Stephen Prickett points out, has always been a translated book. Our task is to explore the implications of that claim in a wider variety of religious literature. ... Read more
