Together, the essays comprise a comprehensive and rich investigation of the idea of sanctity and its many medieval manifestations across time (fifth through fifteenth centuries) and in different geographical locations (England, Scotland, France, Italy, the Low Countries). By approaching the theme of sanctity from multiple disciplinary perspectives, this highly original collection pushes forward current academic thinking about medieval hagiography, iconography, social history, women's studies, and architectural history.Visualising the Middle Ages ;v. 1.Civilization, MedievalCongressesEuropeChurch history600-1500CongressesCivilization, Medieval270Strickland Debra Higgs1958-477722Dickson Gary(M.
