Bestul constructs the literary history of the Latin Passion narratives, placing them within their social, cultural, and historical contexts. He examines the ways in which the Passion is narrated and renarrated in devotional treatises, paying particular attention to the modifications and enlargements of the narrative of the Passion as it is presented in the canonical gospels. Of particular interest to Bestul are the representations of Jews, women, and the body of the crucified Christ. Bestul argues that the greatly enlarged role of the Jews in the Passion narratives of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries is connected to the rising anti-Judaism of the period. He explores how the representations of women, particularly the Virgin Mary, express cultural values about the place of women in late medieval society and reveal an increased interest in female subjectivity.Middle Ages series.Christian literature, Latin (Medieval and modern)History and criticismDevotional literature, Latin (Medieval and modern)History and criticismLiterature and societyEuropeHistoryCivilization, Medieval, in literatureChristian literature, Latin (Medieval and modern)History and criticism.Devotional literature, Latin (Medieval and modern)History and criticism.Literature and societyHistory.Civilization, Medieval, in literature.232.96/094/0902Bestul Thomas H(Thomas Howard),1942-1574989MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910778977903321Texts of the passion3851641UNINA01061cam0-22003131i-450 99000462203040332120250423143238.0000462203FED01000462203(Aleph)000462203FED0100046220319990604d1959----km-y0itay50------bafreFRy---c---00---Contes drolatiques precédés de La comédie humaine(oeuvres ébauchées, 2., préfaces)Balzacétablissement du texte notices et notes par Roger Pierrotindex de la Comédie humaine par Fernand LotteParisGallimard19591724 p.18 cmBibliothèque de la Pléiade141Balzac,Honoré de<1799-1850>384773Lotte,FernandPierrot,RogerITUNINARICAUNIMARCBK990004622030403321840.8 BIBPLE 141I.f.m.9524FLFBCFLFBCContes drolatiques precédés de La comédie humaine553054UNINA
