A Corpus, in Sum -- Acknowledgments -- Notes -- Bibliography -- Index Supplementing theological interpretation with historical, literary, and philosophical perspectives, The Weight of Love analyzes the nature and role of affectivity in medieval Christian devotion through an original interpretation of the writings of the Franciscan theologian Bonaventure. It intervenes in two crucial developments in medieval Christian thought and practice: the renewal of interest in the corpus of Dionysius the Areopagite in thirteenth-century Paris and the proliferation of new forms of affective meditation focused on the passion of Christ in the later Middle Ages. Through the exemplary life and death of Francis of Assisi, Robert Glenn Davis examines how Bonaventure traces a mystical itinerary culminating in the meditant’s full participation in Christ’s crucifixion. For Bonaventure, Davis asserts, this death represents the becoming-body of the soul, the consummation and transformation of desire into the crucified body of Christ.In conversation with the contemporary historiography of emotions and critical theories of affect, The Weight of Love contributes to scholarship on medieval devotional literature by urging and offering a more sustained engagement with the theological and philosophical elaborations of affectus. It also contributes to debates around the “affective turn” in the humanities by placing it within this important historical context, challenging modern categories of affect and emotion.LoveReligious aspectsChristianityHistory of doctrinesMiddle Ages, 600-1500LoveBonaventureDionysius the AreopagiteFrancis of Assisiaffect and emotionaffective meditationaffective turnmedieval devotional literaturemysticismRELIGION / TheologybisacshBonaventure.Dionysius the Areopagite.Francis of Assisi.affect and emotion.affective meditation.affective turn.medieval devotional literature.mysticism.LoveReligious aspectsChristianityHistory of doctrinesLove.Bonaventure.Dionysius the Areopagite.Francis of Assisi.affect and emotion.affective meditation.affective turn.medieval devotional literature.mysticism.RELIGION / Theology.241/.4Davis Robert Glenn, authttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut952065DE-B1597DE-B1597BOOK996478971103316The weight of love2152414UNISA02351oam 2200649I 450 991078302200332120230421042018.01-134-80076-21-134-80077-01-280-11348-00-203-98374-210.4324/9780203983744 (CKB)1000000000005859(EBL)240381(OCoLC)264447785(SSID)ssj0000216912(PQKBManifestationID)11912301(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000216912(PQKBWorkID)10198044(PQKB)10182553(MiAaPQ)EBC240381(Au-PeEL)EBL240381(CaPaEBR)ebr2003837(CaONFJC)MIL11348(OCoLC)936912386(OCoLC)826516308(EXLCZ)99100000000000585920180331d1995 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrOut of the margin feminist perspectives on economics /edited by Edith Kuiper and Jolande Sap ; with Susan Feiner, Notburga Ott, and Zafiris TzannatosLondon ;New York :Routledge,1995.1 online resource (236 p.)Description based upon print version of record.0-415-12531-6 0-415-12575-8 Includes bibliographical references and index.BOOK COVER; HALF-TILE; TITLE; COPYRIGHT; CONTENTS; CONTRIBUTORS; ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS; Part I HERSTORY OF ECONOMICS; Part II ECONOMIC THEORY; Part III INTERPRETING ECONOMICS; Part IV ECONOMIC MEASUREMENT; Part V EMPOWERMENT OF WOMEN; Feminists have found much to concern them in the approach of economics to women.
