Transfiguration, traditionally understood as the revelation of divinity in community, becomes a figure for those splendours, mundane and divine, that wait within the read, lived and loved world. Bringing together medieval sources with modern lyric medievalism, the book argues for the porousness of time and flesh, not only through the accustomed cadences of scholarly argumentation but also through its own moments of poetic reflection. In this way, Augustine, Cassian, Bernard of Clairvaux, Dante, Boccaccio and the heroes of Old French narrative, no more or less than their modern lyric counterparts, come to light in new and newly complicated ways. -- .\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47920505454750,"sku":"ING-9781526148650","price":194.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781526148650.jpg?v=1782822395","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781526148650","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
