Uncertain Refuge

Sanctuary in the Literature of Medieval England

To seek sanctuary from persecution by entering a sacred space is an act of desperation, but also a symbolic endeavor: fugitives invoke divine presence to reach a precarious safe haven that imbues their lives with religious, social, or political significance. In medieval England, sanctuary was upheld under both canon and common law, and up to five hundred people sought sanctuary every year. What they found, however, was not so much a static refuge as a temporary respite from further action-confession and exile-or from further violence-jurisdictional conflict, harrying or starvation, a breaching of the sanctuary.While sanctuary has usually been analyzed as part of legal history, in Uncertain Refuge Elizabeth Allen explores the symbolic consequences of sanctuary seeking in English literary works-miracle collections, chronicles, romances, and drama. She ponders the miracle of a stag's escape from the hunt into a churchyard as well as the account of a fallen political favorite who gains a sort of charisma as he takes sanctuary three times in succession; the figure of Sir Gawain, seeking refuge in a stark land far from the court and Robin Hood, hiding in his local forest refuge among his Merry Men. Her consideration of medieval sanctuary extends to its resonances in a seventeenth-century play about the early Tudor usurper Perkin Warbeck and even into modern America, with the case of a breach of sanctuary in southwest Georgia in 1963, when sheriffs took over a voter registration meeting in a local church.Uncertain Refuge illuminates a fantasy of protection and its impermanence that animated late medieval literary culture, and one that remains poignantly alive, if no longer written into law, in today's troubled political world.

As the hype surrounding the year 2012 as the end of the world gains momentum, the future of mankind is being debated by believers and nonbelievers alike. Will it be Armageddon as many doomsday prophets claim, or does God have another, better plan?Either way, God is calling His people to Himself as never before. Perhaps this new conversation is His answer to raising our consciousness to a higher level of communion with Him. Poet Elizabeth Allan believes this to be true, and her thoughtful and timely poems reflect this understanding. Divided into two sections, Prayers and Praise, Allens poems combine rich imagery with rhythmic diversity. In My Delight Is in You, Allen gives thanks for her blessings and looks to the Lord for her happiness. Allen seeks His spirit to rid her of selfish desires and help her develop a servants heart in Spirit Filled. Other poems celebrate grace, forgiveness, Gods enduring love, and Christs return.Prayers from the Heart offers thoughts of praise, worship, and a longing to know Him. But more importantly, they celebrate knowing what it is to be in Him. Take the time to start, renew, or strengthen your relationship with the Lord and be blessed today!

Explores the intersections between two fundamental approaches to medieval literature, shedding new light on texts ranging from The Canterbury Tales to Le Morte Darthur.This volume identifies new methods and questions for language-based approaches to medieval English literature and literature-based approaches to Middle English by identifying philology as a cross-disciplinary practice shared by literary scholarship and linguistics. How can late medieval cultural perception and social participation be illuminated by literary language? What can language forms tell us about the experience of England's multilingual landscape? Contributors trace the relay between imaginative literature and an expanding Middle English lexicon, the literary affordances of phonological and morphological features of Middle English, and the way that medieval literature engaged with its multilingual sources. Essays also consider how social authority is negotiated in language, with a particular focus on highly charged words such as "corruption", "instability", and "treason" and highly charged phenomena such as language contact, allusion, and genre experiments. Together, they show that literary and linguistic approaches may inform each other to open new avenues of research on a wide variety of texts - including Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales and Troilus and Criseyde, Malory's Le Morte Darthur, Gower's Confessio Amantis, Lydgate's Reson and sensuallyte and Hoccleve's Regement of Princes. The volume thus pays tribute to the influence on both fields of distinguished medievalist Karla Taylor.
