Originally published in 1991, Piers Plowman: An Approach to the
C-Text studies what might be called the "mindscape" of Piers
Plowman. The book argues that the C-text poem is inspired by the
writings of the biblical prophets. The book outlines the
fourteenth-century background and discusses the idea of prophecy
and how the biblical prophets were read, as well as the role of
literary models such as Wyclif and Joachim of Fiore. By examining
the specific aspects of the poem, the book shows imaginative
connections between the poem and the prophets, offering a unique
perspective that Langland's prophetic stance is complementary to
other approaches to the poem.
