Book Synopsis The English Prose Treatises of Richard Rolle by : Claire Elizabeth McIlroy
Book excerpt: The author argues that in these devotional works (which appealed to a broad readership in late medieval England) Rolle successfully refines traditional affective strategies to develop an implied reader-identity, the individual soul seeking the love of God, which empowers each and every reader in his or her own spiritual journey."--Jacket.
