As examples of the widespread medieval literary criticism of abuses associated with excommunication and indulgences in a variety of forms, Burrows offers English translations of two 13th-century French satires. L'Escommeniement, issues a riotous series of excommunications against a broad range of social groups for actions ranging from the unremarkable to the profoundly obscene. InLa Pardon, a cardinal from Rome offers remission of all sins committed during sexual intercourse and details the penitential actions required for absolution by specific groups, mostly religious.
