Envisaging Heaven in the Middle Ages
deals with medieval notions of heaven in theological and mystical
writings, in visions of the Otherworld, and in medieval art, poetry and
music. It considers the influence of such notions in the secular
literature of some of the greatest writers of the period including
Chrétien de Troyes and Chaucer. The coherence and beauty of
these notions make heaven one of the most impressive medieval
"cathedrals of the mind".
With contributions from such experts as A.C. Spearing, Peter Meredith,
Peter Dronk and Robin Kirkpatrick, this collection is essential
reading for all those interested in medieval religion and culture.
