Description

In the Mirror of the Prodigal Son examines how the biblical parable of the Prodigal Son became a formative narrative in shaping religious identity across medieval and Reformation Europe from approximately 1200 to 1550. Through detailed analysis of preaching traditions and pastoral theology, Pietro Delcorno demonstrates the parable's central role in ecclesiastical instruction and spiritual formation during this transformative period. This scholarly work, part of the Commentaria series published by Brill, traces how religious leaders employed this biblical narrative to guide believers towards repentance, redemption and moral renewal. The study reveals the sophisticated ways in which medieval and Renaissance preachers adapted the parable's themes to address contemporary pastoral concerns, making it an indispensable resource for understanding how biblical narratives functioned as tools for religious teaching and community identity formation during the centuries preceding the Protestant Reformation.
