It centers its attention on a selection of significant texts written in Latin, Anglo-Norman, and Middle English, which illustrate the transition of devotion from monastic circles to the lay public during the late medieval era. The book argues that devotion to the Name forms a fundamental aspect of Richard Rolle's contemplative practice, although it had already gained traction in trilingual England at an earlier stage. The volume delves into the extent to which the Second Lyon Council of 1274 had a significant impact on the spread of this devotion in England and beyond. Furthermore, it offers insightful evidence regarding the ways in which Margery Kempe and her scribes employed devotion, how Eleanor Hull integrated it as a crucial element into her meditative sequence spanning seven days of the week, and how Lady Margaret Beaufort actively worked towards its establishment as an official feast.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe study of devotion to the Name of Jesus in Medieval English literature, spanning from approximately 1100 to 1530, provides a comprehensive yet intricate exploration of this religious practice during the late medieval period in England.
