Description

Required reading for everyone wishing to learn about or research in the field of Wycliffite and Lollard studies.

RICHARD REX, QUEENS' COLLEGE, CAMBRIDGEWho were the Lollards?

What did Lollards believe? What can the manuscript record of Lollard works teach us about the textual dissemination of Lollard beliefs and the audience for Lollard writings?

What did Lollards have in commonwith other reformist or dissident thinkers in late medieval England, and how were their views distinctive?

These questions have been fundamental to the modern study of Lollardy (also known as Wycliffism).

The essays in this book reveal their broader implications for the study of English literature and history through a series of closely focused studies that demonstrate the wide-ranging influence of Lollard writings and ideas on later medieval English culture.

Introductions to previous scholarship, and an extensive Bibliography of printed resources for the study of Wyclif and Wycliffites, provide an entry to scholarship for those new to the field. Contributors: DAVID AERS, MARGARET ASTON, HELEN BARR, MISHTOONI BOSE, LAWRENCE M.
