Pastor and Laity in the Theology of Jean Gerson explores the
pastoral teaching of one of Europe's most influential churchmen of
the early fifteenth century. Chancellor of the University of Paris
from 1395 to 1429, Gerson is probably best known for his activities
towards ending the Great Schism. But behind his public life lay a
deep concern for the spiritual welfare of the people. Through an
examination of Gerson's sermons and writings for the laity, and of
his many works giving guidance to bishops and parish priests about
their roles as pastors, preachers and confessors, the book throws
light on what the late medieval, pre-Reformation Church was
teaching the laity, and also on popular religious mentality in the
period. The topics dealt with range from matters of high
theological import such as justification, predestination and
mysticism to the seven capital sins and all their branches, the art
of preaching, women, marriage and children.
