A companion to John Wyclif : late medieval theologian

---

Perhaps no medieval theologian has experienced the ebb and flow f human affections to the extent that John Wyclif would endure. Both hailed and reviled in his own lifetime, he would later be held up as hero and villain after his death, only to be reclaimed and ignored intermittently over the centuries. This is not the place for Wycliffite historiography; the essays contained in this volume will speak to such questions within the confines of their particular topics. Wyclif ’s medieval and modern legacy is an interesting topic in itself, but suffice it to say here that the study of John Wyclif received its greatest boost in the late nineteenth century when a group of predominantly German scholars began to publish critical editions of his Latin works, covering the full range of this prodigious mind, thereby producing volumes of logic and metaphysics, christology, ecclesiology and politics, biblical exegesis, and sacramental theology, as well as a host of sermons. Whatever the shortcomings of these editions, they remain indispensable and will not be surpassed without a similar concentration of effort. All of this is to say that it is really only in the last one hundred years that the scholarly world has had access to these often massive works, in all of their complexity and subtlety
