Description: These papers are the proceedings of the third international Exeter symposium which seeks o promote an interdisciplinary approach to the understanfing of the medieval mystical tradition in England. This is an area of study which does not fruitfully lend itself to any single academic discipline in isolation; at the three meetings sicne 1980, theologians, historians, literary crtitics, textual scholars, those engaged in the study of semiotics and those involved in the practice of psychiatric medicine have met to exchange ideas and explore together the differing aspects which engage them in this field of study.
