Piers Plowman: A Contribution To The History Of English Mysticism is a book written by J.J. Jusserand that explores the historical and literary significance of the 14th-century English poem, Piers Plowman. The book begins by providing an overview of the poem's authorship, historical context, and literary style, before delving into its themes and symbolism. Jusserand argues that Piers Plowman is a significant work of English mysticism, and that it reflects the religious and social concerns of its time. He examines the poem's portrayal of social and economic inequality, its critique of the Church, and its use of allegory to convey spiritual truths. The book also includes a detailed analysis of the poem's language and verse, as well as its influence on later works of English literature. Overall, Piers Plowman: A Contribution To The History Of English Mysticism is a comprehensive study of one of the most important works of medieval English literature, and a valuable resource for scholars and students of English literature, history, and religion.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
