Brian Cummings examines the place of literature in the Reformation,
considering both how arguments about biblical meaning and literary
interpretation influenced the new theology, and how developments in
theology in turn influenced literary practices. Part One focuses on
Northern Europe, reconsidering the relationship between Renaissance
humanism (especially Erasmus) and religious ideas (especially
Luther). Parts Two and Three examine Tudor and early Stuart
England. Part Two describes the rise of vernacular theology and
protestant culture in relation to fundamental changes in the
understanding of the English language. Part Three studies English
religious poetry (including Donne, Herbert, and in an Epilogue,
Milton) in the wake of these changes. Bringing together genres and
styles of writing which are normally kept apart (poems, sermons,
treatises, commentaries), Cummings offers a major re-evaluation of
the literary production of this intensely verbal and controversial
period.
