Penguin Books [1960]. Penguin Classics L87. Soft Cover. 'Langland was not, primarily, either a satirist, a social commentator, or a preacher. He was a poet who used all the material, homiletic, theological, or allegorical, with which he was familiar, to create a work essentially his own, different in quality and kind from any other work of the Middle Ages. "Piers Plowman," says mr Nevill Coghill, "is a Christian poem about humanity, and it deals entirely with with most important of all questions possible to the Christian, namely "How can a man win salvation?".' 366 p., 18 cm.; pictorial paper covers; ink owner's name, ink underlining & notes; good. 31987.
