  1. Hulme has attempted to make all the known Middle-English versions of the Harrowing of Hell and the poetical Gospel of Nicodemus accessible to students. The Harrowing of Hell is the Old English and Middle English term for the triumphant descent of Christ into hell (or Hades) between the time of His Crucifixion and His Resurrection, when, according to Christian belief, He brought salvation to the souls held captive there since the beginning of the world.
