Economy, Representation, and the Sale of Indulgences in Late-Medieval England

Description
In fourteenth-century England, the sale of indulgences was supported by orthodoxy and attacked by Wycliffites. Poetic fictions transcend this simple opposition, as seen in the artful deviousness of PardT and the revitalized idealism of "Piers Plowman."
