Description

Explore the shifting perspectives of the sixteenth century with Monks, Miracles and Magic: Reformation Representations of the Medieval Church. In this study, Helen L. Parish examines how Reformation propagandists rewrote the history of medieval Christianity to serve new religious agendas. This work provides a deep look into the ways myths and legends from the Middle Ages were reconstructed and reinterpreted to create a historical foundation for the Protestant church. By crossing the boundary between medieval and modern history, the text offers a fresh perspective on how the past was used to shape the future. Parish utilizes a wide selection of writings on the lives of the saints from both eras to address ongoing academic debates. This book is an essential resource for readers interested in the historical transition of religious thought and the evolution of religious narratives during the Reformation period.
