More about the book

The book explores the interplay between philosophy and literature in William Langland's poem, focusing on the influence of John Duns Scotus and William of Ockham. It examines how their revolutionary ideas on epistemology, ethics, and free will are reflected in Langland's portrayal of an individual's quest for truth and love, particularly the relationship between reason and will in expressing love. This comprehensive study, the first in over thirty years, is vital for medieval literary scholars and cultural historians interested in these themes.
