Reviews
'This is a highly scholarly and very illuminating contribution to our knowledge of the way in which pastoral and literary discourse interact in the Middle Ages.'The Times Literary Supplement, 'This is a highly scholarly and very illuminating contribution to our knowledge of the way in which pastoral and literary discourse interact in the Middle Ages.' The Times Literary Supplement, ‘This is a highly scholarly and very illuminating contribution to our knowledge of the way in which pastoral and literary discourse interact in the Middle Ages.’The Times Literary Supplement, "...Craun's analysis provides a model of how reinscribing the literary within its appropriate traditions, engaging the rhetorical backgrounds that fourteenth-century poets would have expected their readers to share, helps to bring poetry to life."

Synopsis
Drawing on manuscript sources, this book examines how the medieval clergy developed the authority and persuasive force to attempt to govern the day-to-day speech of Western Christians. It explores, for the first time, how Chaucer, Langland, Gower and the "Patience" poet presented and judged these attempts to label some political, social and private speech as deviant and destructive--as lying, slander, blasphemy and other Sins of the Tongue., This book examines how the medieval clergy tried to govern the day-to-day speech of Western Christians.

It shows how attempts were made to portray some political, social and private speech as deviant and destructive, labelling it lying, slander, blasphemy and other Sins of the Tongue. It explores, for the first time, how Chaucer, Langland, Gower and the 'Patience' poet use the different strains of this pastoral discourse not only to expose the destructive power of speech in political and social life but also to judge clerical claims to authority and efficacy in formulating and applying codes of speech.
