Originally published in 1972, Themes and Images in the Medieval
English Religious Lyric discusses themes and images in religious
lyric poetry in Medieval English poetry. The book looks at the
affect that tradition and convention had on the religious poetry of
the medieval period. It examines the background of the lyrics,
including the Latin tradition which was inherited by medieval
vernacular and shows how religious lyric poetry presents, through a
rich variety of images, the significant incidents in the scheme of
Christ's redemption, such as the Annunciation, the Nativity, the
Passion and the Resurrection. It also considers the lyrics which
were designed to assist humanity in the task of living in a
Christian life, as well as those which prepared them for death.
