CFP Leeds 2011: \u201cDives and Pauper \u201c<\/p>\n
The very title of this Middle English treatise speaks to the theme of the Leeds International Medieval Congress<\/a>. Well-known yet under-studied, its prologue deals with questions of wealth and evangelical poverty, while its treatment of the Ten Commandments has provided historians with a wealth of information about fourteenth- and fifteenth-century life. <\/p>\n I am seeking papers exploring any aspect of Dives and Pauper<\/em>. Possible topics might include its possible authorship and patronage; connections with Lollardy, vernacular theology, or homiletics; analyses of any of its many parts; sources and analogues; and manuscript traditions. Other proposals are also warmly welcomed. <\/p>\n Please send abstracts for papers of 15-20 minutes to Elizabeth Harper at eharper[at]uca[dot]edu<\/a> by Monday, September 20, 2010.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" CFP Leeds 2011: \u201cDives and Pauper \u201c The very title of this Middle English treatise speaks to the theme of the Leeds International Medieval Congress.
