About the book >.>.> Paradise, Death and Doomsday in Anglo-Saxon Literature by Ananya Jahanara Kabir is an exploration of how the Anglo-Saxons understood the period between death and Doomsday. This paperback re-issue presents the first dedicated investigation into the concept of interim Paradise, which refers to the belief that good souls reside in a temporary paradise before the final judgment.The book delves into various visions of the afterlife as depicted in Anglo-Saxon literature, integrating literary analysis with insights from early medieval history and early Christian theology. Kabir's work addresses the historical and philosophical contexts that shaped these beliefs, making it a vital resource for scholars studying Anglo-Saxon England, historians of Christianity, and anyone interested in the cultural impact of the Anglo-Saxon period.By examining the intertwining of literature and theological concepts, the text reveals the complexities of Anglo-Saxon thought surrounding death, paradise, and the anticipation of Doomsday. This comprehensive study invites readers to reflect on the cultural narratives that influenced early medieval perceptions of the afterlife. (LL). N° de réf. du vendeur Batch-FM753-VG-15058

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. How did the Anglo-Saxons conceptualize the interim between death and Doomsday? In this 2001 book, Ananya Jahanara Kabir presents an investigation into the Anglo-Saxon belief in the 'interim paradise': paradise as a temporary abode for good souls following death and pending the final decisions of Doomsday. She locates the origins of this distinctive sense of paradise within early Christian polemics, establishes its Anglo-Saxon development as a site of contestation and compromise, and argues for its post-Conquest transformation into the doctrine of purgatory. In ranging across Old English prose and poetry as well as Latin apocrypha, exegesis, liturgy, prayers and visions of the otherworld, and combining literary criticism with recent scholarship in early medieval history, early Christian theology and history of ideas, this book is essential reading for scholars of Anglo-Saxon England, historians of Christianity, and all those interested in the impact of the Anglo-Saxon period on the later Middle Ages. How did the Anglo-Saxons conceptualize the interim between death and Doomsday? In Paradise, Death and Doomsday in Anglo-Saxon Literature, first published in 2001, Dr Kabir presents an investigation into the Anglo-Saxon belief in the 'interim paradise': paradise as a temporary abode for good souls following death and pending the final decisions of Doomsday.
