Lay Piety and Religious Discipline in Middle English Literature - Cambridge Studies in Medieval Literature
Rice, Nicole R. (Yale University, Connecticut)
In this book Nicole Rice analyses late medieval prose guides that disseminated the idea of religious discipline to a lay audience. By considering the themes of spiritual discipline, religious identity, and orthodoxy in Langland and Chaucer, the study also sheds new light on Piers Plowman and The Canterbury Tales.
