Forms of Speculation: Religious Genres and Religious Inquiry in Late Medieval England

Published
DAI A69.05 (2008): n.p.

Description
Sisk contends that a number of late medieval works, including Fragment 8 of CT, "obliquely" address contemporary religious issues. These works mark a departure from more traditional (and clearly didactic) religious treatises and may even suggest that these texts merit further consideration as witnesses to intellectual history.
