| Beschreibung: | The reforming decrees of the Fourth Lateran Council of 1215 had a profound impact on many aspects of parochial life in late medieval Europe, none more so than the decree that bishops (or their designates) preach regularly to their Christian flock. So successful was the result of this effort that in England, for example, the period from the mid-fourteenth to the mid-fifteenth century is regarded as the golden age of medieval preaching there. This volume provides editions (and modern translations) of twenty-three sermons from Bodleian Library, Oxford, MS Bodley 649, one of the most important and unusual sermon manuscripts from that period. The sermons are all written in a highly unique macaronic blend of Latin and Middle English, a phenomenon recently examined by Siegfried Wenzel in Macaronic Sermons (1994). Wenzel’s study, however, contained an edition of only one sermon from this manuscript. In offering a complete collection of sermons, this volume provides readers with an opportunity to explore in greater detail the entire oeuvre of the Bodley 649 preacher, in all likelihood a Benedictine monk trained at Oxford in the early fifteenth century. |
