Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a series of texts originating from the 16th Century offering a glimpse into early English poetic forms and religious debates. Of particular note are the two texts, 'The New Notbrowne Mayd' and 'Loues Leprosie', both of which offer contrasting perspectives on the nature of love. 'The New Notbrowne Mayd', a moralization of the traditional ballad 'The Notbrowne Mayde', offers a perspective from the mother of Christ, Mary, in her debate with Jesus on the value of man's love. In contrast, 'Loues Leprosie' explores the complexities of love and desire through the story of Achilles' love for Polyxena. The texts in this collection are not only of literary significance but also shed light on the religious and social attitudes of the time.
