Book Synopsis Poetry and Exegesis in Premodern Latin Christianity by : Willemien Otten
Book excerpt: This volume presents a broad variety of specifically Christian approaches to poetry and analyses modes of interpreting the Bible that are new in poetry compared with prose exegesis. Both theoretical statements on poetry by Christians and concrete poetic works from roughly 300 to 1250 AD are taken into account.
