Publisher's Synopsis

Religious Thought In Old English Verse is a book written by Charles John Abbey. This book is a comprehensive study of religious thought in Old English verse, which was written between the 7th and 11th centuries. The author examines the religious themes and motifs present in the poetry of this period, including the concepts of sin, redemption, and salvation. Abbey explores the ways in which the Christian faith was integrated into the Anglo-Saxon culture, and how it influenced the literature of the time. The book also includes a detailed analysis of the religious symbolism and imagery used in Old English poetry, as well as an examination of the role of the poet in conveying religious messages to the audience. This book is an essential resource for scholars of Old English literature, as well as anyone interested in the history of Christianity in England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
