DESCRIPTION:Talk by Dr. Antje Chan\, Stevenson Chair in Religion and Litera
 ture\, Religion\, Literature and the Shaping of Neighbourliness in Late Me
 dieval England.\n\nSome of the most popular writings of fifteenth-century 
 England were in fact anonymous pastoral treatises that instructed people i
 n the Christian faith. They were copied as much in intricate books of hour
 s owned by the English nobility and in manuscripts of theological scholars
 hip produced by monks\, as in account books owned by merchants and in prim
 ers used by mothers and school masters to instruct the youth in basic text
 ual and devotional literacy. These tracts of pastoral instruction not only
  shaped the religious and civic imagination of fifteenth-century people bu
 t also their practices\, as they explained basic Christian doctrines\, sac
 raments and duties. This lecture explores how religious literature functio
 ned as initiator of community-based care–– neighbourliness––by promoting s
 ocial connections and responsibility in light of death.\n
