How did the Anglo-Saxons conceptualize the interim between death and Doomsday? In Paradise, Death and Doomsday in Anglo-Saxon Literature, first published in 2001, Dr Kabir presents an investigation into the Anglo-Saxon belief in the 'interim paradise': paradise as a temporary abode for good souls following death and pending the final decisions of Doomsday.
