Lollard sermons

edited by Gloria Cigman

The Lollards, whose propaganda started around 1377, were followers of Wycliffe, and condemned transubstantiation, advocated the diversion of ecclesiastical property and denounced war and capital punishment. The nature of the Lollards and their belifs are evident in these sermons, composed for popular transmission and as a manual for the preacher. They range in subject from gospel sermons, an optional expansion, the Sermon of Dead Men, and a funeral sermon. There is a consistency in the vocabulary and attitudes expressed, but marked differences between the sermons suggest more than one writer and an intention to demonstrate different preaching methods. There are examples of imagery, alliteration, proverbs, personification and simulated dialogue and debate and the authorities cited include Augustine, Gregory, Jerome, pseudo-Chrysostom and Grosseteste.
