Exploring the intersection of theology and literature, this work delves into Christian concepts of salvation, sin, and divine-human relations. Aers engages with Saint Augustine's ideas and examines the writings of notable fourteenth-century theologians, including William of Ockham and Thomas Bradwardine. Central to the discussion is William Langland's "Piers Plowman," which offers a unique theological perspective shaped by Christology. The book concludes with an analysis of Julian of Norwich's compassionate theology, linking her insights with those of Langland and Augustine.
