Description

Explore rare devotional literature with this volume from the TEAMS Middle English Texts Series. This collection provides the first critical editions of two significant but often overlooked Middle English prayer cycles that offer a unique window into medieval faith and religious practice. The first text, the Holkham Prayers and Meditations (ca. 1410), serves as a rare example of female authorship. Written by an unnamed woman to guide a religious sister, it provides a personal perspective on spiritual life. The second text, Simon Appulby's Fruyte of Redempcyon (1514), was composed by one of England's last anchorites to serve his urban community. Patterned after the influential fourteenth-century Meditationes vitae Christi, these works utilize a psychological model of prayer to engage the reader. This book is an essential resource for students and scholars of medieval history, literature, and religious studies, providing direct access to authentic Middle English devotional texts.
