Drawing on Evagrius Ponticus's Praktikos and John Cassian's The Institutes, this thesis reexamines our traditional methods of classification for this Exeter Book poem by using an early eastern Christian version of the seven deadly sins--the deadly passions--as a new interpretive framework. en_US Wake Forest University English literature Medieval literature Anglo-Saxon literature Old English poetry English language Old English The Eighth Deadly Sin: Dejection as Passion in The Wanderer Thesis Release the entire work for access only to the Wake Forest University system for one year from the date below.
