Download or read book Kind Neighbours Scottish Saints and Society in the Later Middle Ages written by Tom Turpie and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2015-08-31 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Kind Neighbours Tom Turpie explores devotion to Scottish saints and their shrines in the later middle ages. He provides fresh insight into the role played by these saints in the legal and historical arguments for Scottish independence, and the process by which first Andrew, and later Ninian, were embraced as patron saints of the Scots. Kind Neighbours also explains the appeal of the most popular Scottish saints of the period and explores the relationship between regional shrines and the Scottish monarchy. Rejecting traditional interpretations based around church-led patriotism or crown patronage, Turpie draws on a wide range of sources to explain how religious, political and environmental changes in the later middle ages shaped devotion to the saints in Scotland.

Download or read book The Naked Text written by Sheila Delany and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2023-04-28 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sequel to her seminal book on Chaucer’s House of Fame, Sheila Delany’s elegant and innovative study of Chaucer’s Legend of Good Women explores what it meant to be a reader and a writer, and to be English and a courtier, in the late fourteenth century. The richness of late medieval art, philosophy, and history are powerfully brought to bear on one of Chaucer’s most controversial works. So too are the insights of modern critical theory—semiotics, historicism, and gender studies especially—making this a unique achievement in medieval and Chaucerian studies. Delany’s strikingly original readings of Chaucer’s Orientalism, his sexual wordplay, his theological attitudes, and his treatment of sex and gender have given us a Chaucer for our time. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press’s mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1994.

Download or read book Chaucer s Rehersynges written by William A. Quinn and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Suggests that the problems scholars have with Chaucer's nine legends of good women vanish if Chaucer is assumed to have written them as scripts to be performed as well as a text to be disseminated in manuscript. Otherwise the work is virtually ignored as a flat, incomplete endeavor between two really good books. Examines the two prologues and each legend in turn, showing how the phrasing and choice of words would have been received as humorous by an audience.

Download or read book On Love and Virtue Theological Essays written by Michael S. Sherwin and published by Emmaus Academic. This book was released on 2018-12-01 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does it mean to love? What are the traits of character that support love’s activity? How does the economy of grace—the mission of Christ and the action of the Holy Spirit—elevate and transform human love, virtue, and the desire for happiness? In On Love and Virtue: Theological Essays, the eminent Dominican theologian Michael Sherwin considers how the Catholic tradition has addressed these questions. Fr. Sherwin places this tradition in dialogue with contemporary questions. Taking St. Thomas Aquinas as his primary guide, Fr. Sherwin reads St. Thomas in light of his biblical and patristic sources (especially St. Augustine) and engages contemporary developments in philosophy in order to deepen our understanding of how grace both heals and elevates human nature. Along the way, Fr. Sherwin considers the vocation of the theologian and the biblical and patristic understanding of the Christian call to moral apprenticeship and friendship with God.
