Dan Michel's Ayenbite of Inwyt: or Remorse of Conscience, in the Kentish Dialect, 1340 A.D. is a book edited and translated by Richard Morris. The book is a Middle English translation of a French book titled Le Somme des Vices et des Vertus (The Sum of Vices and Virtues) and was written in 1340 in the Kentish dialect. The Ayenbite of Inwyt is a religious text that focuses on the concept of sin and the importance of repentance. The book is divided into seven parts, each of which explores a different aspect of sin and its consequences. The text also includes moral and ethical teachings, as well as stories and parables that illustrate the consequences of sinful behavior. Morris's edition includes notes and glossaries to aid readers in understanding the Middle English language and the historical context of the text. The book is a valuable resource for scholars of medieval literature and history, as well as anyone interested in the history of Christianity and religious thought.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
