The essay employs a structured approach mirroring Langland's poem to explore themes of Constantinian Christianity and reformation. Aers argues that Langland envisions a secularizing church, advocating for a community of "fools" that transcends traditional hierarchies. This work raises important questions about the relationship between Christianity and culture over time. It includes a summary of the poem and modern translations, making it a valuable resource for both specialists and those grappling with contemporary church issues.
