This book offers a fresh contextualisation which engages with the history of lay piety and vernacular spirituality in the Middle Ages. This book is innovative in that it provides an introduction to "Ancrene Wisse", one of the most important works in English of the thirteenth century. It offers a new contextualisation which engages with the history of lay piety and vernacular spirituality in the Middle Ages, thus extending analysis of the book beyond its original purpose as a guide for anchoresses. The placing of "Ancrene Wisse" within this context also allows comparisons to be made with other literature for semi-regular women, such as sermons preached to beguines - semi-religious women who formed communities in the Low Countries and France in the High Middle Ages.Religion and Culture in the Middle Ages (University of Wales Press).Devotional literature, English (Middle)History and criticismEnglish literatureMiddle English, 1100-1500History and criticismNunsReligious lifeNunsBooks and readingEnglandHistoryTo 1500WomenReligious aspectsChristianityEnglishHILCCLanguages & LiteraturesHILCCEnglish LiteratureHILCCElectronic books.Devotional literature, English (Middle)History and criticism.English literatureHistory and criticism.NunsReligious life.NunsBooks and readingHistoryWomenReligious aspectsChristianity.EnglishLanguages & LiteraturesEnglish Literature255.901Gunn Cate904312PQKB9910130754403321Ancrene Wisse and vernacular spirit2021993UNINA02254oam 2200469I 450 99105116177033211-351-19703-71-351-19701-010.4324/9781351197038 (CKB)3790000000538010(MiAaPQ)EBC5167546(OCoLC)1011115089(EXLCZ)99379000000053801020180706d20172004 uy 0engurcnu||||||||rdacontentrdamediardacarrierAlter Ego the critical writings of michel leiris /by Sean HandFirst edition.Boca Raton, FL :Routledge, an imprint of Taylor and Francis,[2017].©20041 online resource (144 pages)Research Monographs in French Studies,1466-8157 ;170-367-09424-X 1-900755-98-X Includes bibliographical references and index.chapter Introduction /Sean Hand -- chapter 1 Perceiving Presence: Leiris and Visual Art /Sean Hand -- chapter 2 Breaking the Sound Barrier: Leiris and Music /Sea?n Hand -- chapter 3 Reading Rules: Leiris and Literature /Sea?n Hand -- chapter Conclusion /Sea?n Hand."Alter Ego is the first monograph in English on the critical writings of Michel Leiris (1901-90) A groundbreaking autobiographer and pioneering ethnographer, Leiris also produced important criticism on art, opera, jazz and literature, which acts as a key commentary on twentieth-century intellectual movements and demonstrates vividly the constant refashioning and reformulation of contemporary ideas and aesthetics. Hand defines and situates Leiris's core themes, analyses his criticism in each of the art areas examined, and delineates the model that emerges of a contrapuntal and heterogeneous critical identity."Research monographs in French studies ;17.CriticismElectronic books.Criticism.848.91209Hand Sean421058FlBoTFGFlBoTFGBOOK9910511617703321Alter Ego2552555UNINA
