This scholarly work by Theresa Tinkle explores the depiction of Jesus Christ in Middle English literature from 1275 to 1475. It examines how various texts of the period portrayed Jesus as both a royal figure and a sacrificial lamb, reflecting complex theological and cultural perspectives. The book is part of 'The New Middle Ages' series, which focuses on medieval cultures with an emphasis on feminist and gender analyses. Intended for scholars and students of medieval studies, the book delves into Christological themes and the interplay between religious narratives and social values. Tinkle also addresses the influence of historical figures and events on the literary representations of Jesus, offering insights into medieval religious thought and its evolution.

Medieval Venuses and Cupids analyses the transformations of the love deities in later Middle English Chaucerian poetry, academic Latin discourses on classical myth (including astrology, natural philosophy, and commentaries on classical Roman literature), and French conventions that associate Venus and Cupid with Ovidian arts of love. Whereas existing studies of Venus and Cupid contend that they always and everywhere represent two loves (good and evil), the author argues that medieval discourses actually promulgate diverse, multiple, and often contradictory meanings for the deities. The book establishes the range of meanings bestowed on the deities through the later Middle Ages, and draws on feminist and cultural theories to offer new models for interpreting both academic Latin discourses and vernacular poetry.
