Du Boulay broadens the traditional, literary, view of Langland in
this extended study of the poet and his world, the first to be
written by a historian this century Professor Du Boulay's book is
both a highly readable introduction to Langland's work and an
original contribution to the history of religious thought. It
rejects the view that Langland was primarily a political radical or
a prophet of doom and sees him as both a great imaginative poet and
a preacher of Christian charity. Writing in an age of intellectual
subtlety and shifting social frontiers, Langland expressed deep
anxieties yet offered to his fellow-Christians a way of interior
repentance and practical love, guided by the enigmatic figure of
Piers.
