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. 410 0$aReligion and Culture in the Middle Ages (University of Wales Press). 606 $aDevotional literature, English (Middle)$xHistory and criticism 606 $aEnglish literature$yMiddle English, 1100-1500$xHistory and criticism 606 $aNuns$xReligious life 606 $aNuns$xBooks and reading$zEngland$xHistory$yTo 1500 606 $aWomen$xReligious aspects$xChristianity 606 $aEnglish$2HILCC 606 $aLanguages & Literatures$2HILCC 606 $aEnglish Literature$2HILCC 610 $acultuur 610 $amiddle ages 610 $aculture 610 $areligie 610 $areligion 610 $amiddeleeuwen 610 $aAnchorite 610 $aAncrene Wisse 610 $aBeguines and Beghards 610 $aGod 610 $aLaity 610 $aSpirituality 615 0$aDevotional literature, English (Middle)$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aEnglish literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aNuns$xReligious life. 615 0$aNuns$xBooks and reading$xHistory 615 0$aWomen$xReligious aspects$xChristianity. 615 7$aEnglish 615 7$aLanguages & Literatures 615 7$aEnglish Literature 676 $a255.901 700 $aGunn$b Cate$0904312 801 0$bPQKB 801 2$bUkMaJRU 912 $a9910563076503321 996 $aAncrene Wisse and vernacular spirit$92021993 997 $aUNINA
