The examination of the context of medieval sermons essayed in this
volume focuses on a variety of aspects: the dominant intra- and
extra-literary influences, the use of literary forms and types, the
adaptation of theological subject matter for proclamation from the
pulpit, the influence of liturgy and audience (congregations), the
interaction between word, writing and image, and not least the
tensions operative in the relation between sermons in practice and
their subsequent written forms. The Devotio moderna and sermons in
Latin figure prominently in the overall layout. The volume also
contains seven hitherto unpublished sermons, some of them in
critical editions.
