Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Egyptian Elements in the Legend of the Body and Soul: A Dissertation Nevertheless, their reliability is increased beyond that of the usual homiletical introduction by several consider ations which, though minor in themselves, are yet of cumulative value. They are contained in the two homilies which represent the most primitive known form of the legend,7 and which, on that account, are the most likely to retain genuine traditions of source. Again, the refer ence to Christian Egypt, though it occurs in both homilies, is not copied in one from the other: in other words, it is not a mere formula. Finally, it is a point in favor of the credibility of these references that the hypo thesis of Egyptian origin, as we have just seen, is one which is in every way possible.

IV THE DANGEROUS PATH TO HEAVEN" This belief in its widest acceptance means only that there are dangers which the soul has to encounter on its journey to heaven. Usually these dangers appear in a series extending the entire length of the path from earth to heaven, so that every step of the soul's passage is made fearful because of them. In the patristic texts the soul meets with recurring bands of spirits who challenge its progress; in the Coptic texts there are beings who threaten and usually, also, physical dangers. 1. The Struggle With The Spieits The soul, as soon as it is freed from the body, ascends toward heaven. Its passage, however, is hindered by numerous spirits, or "powers," who come to meet it, and, confronting it with the various sins, refuse to allow it to pass until it prove its innocence of them. If it be guilty, they carry it off to Hades immediately. Usually there are bands of spirits corresponding to the various sins, and the soul encounters them in a definite order. Only when it has proved its innocence of the first sin, can it encounter the spirits of the second; and so it passes throughout the entire ascent to heaven. In the greater number of the texts, also, the soul is accompanied and protected by angels, who bring forward its good deeds when the spirits present its sins, and, if occasion demands, fight with them for the possession of the soul. In a homily by Cyril of Alexandria, the sins are identified with a series of telonia through which the soul must pass as it ascends to heaven. Tenetur igitur animus a Sanctis angelis, per aereni sublimis praeteriens, invenitque quosdam quasi publicanos ascensum custodientes, et aseendentes animos prehendentes, prohi'bentesque: nam quisque publicanorum propria habet...

Download or read book Death and Purgatory in Middle English Didactic Poetry written by Takami Matsuda and published by Boydell & Brewer Ltd. This book was released on 1997 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of Purgatory in Middle English didactic writings is explored through examination of visions of the afterlife, sermons, homiletic treatises, and lyrics. Purgatory has been the focus of much literary and historical attention since Jacques Le Goff's important Naissance du Purgatoire(1981), but this is the first book-length study to trace its development, reception and influence in Middle English literature.Following a survey of the doctrine of Purgatory and its cultural reception, the book explores the two major Middle English genres in which it is discussed, visions of the afterlife, and didactic andhomiletic treatises on death. In a detailed examination of these, along with sermons and lyrics, the author argues that such writings tend to be structured around the dualism of salvation and damnation, heaven and hell, with no intermediary alternative; at the same time the efficacy of intercession in the alleviation of suffering is repeatedly stressed. The book goes on to suggest that the influence of Purgatory was to provide a more pragmatic and optimistic attitude towards death and the afterlife, as reflected in such poems as the Vernon lyrics.
