He demonstrates the surprising and effective ways that late medieval artists appropriated images of death and dying as a means to affirm their artistic, social, and political identities. The book dedicates each of its three sections to a pairing of a visual convention (deathbed scenes, the Three Living and Three Dead, and the Dance of Death) and a Middle English literary text (Hoccleve’s Lerne for to die , Audelay’s Three Dead Kings , and Lydgate’s Dance of Death ).Visualising the Middle Ages ;v. 9.Art, MedievalHistoryDeath in artDeath in literatureDeathSocial aspectsEuropeHistoryTo 1500Literature, MedievalHistory and criticismMiddle AgesVisual communicationEuropeHistoryTo 1500EuropeIntellectual lifeEuropeSocial conditionsTo 1492Art, MedievalHistory.Death in art.Death in literature.DeathSocial aspectsHistoryLiterature, MedievalHistory and criticism.Middle Ages.Visual communicationHistory700/.45480902Kinch Ashby1662255MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910819846403321Imago mortis4018774UNINA
