During this period, written stories about saints and their relics not only offered guidance and solace but were also used by those living among the ruins of a once great city?particularly its archbishops, monks, and the urban aristocracy?to reflect on its past glory. This practice remained important to the citizens of Ravenna as they came to terms with the city?s revival and renewed relevance in the tenth century under Ottonian rule. In using the vita of Barbatianus as a central text, Edward M. Schoolman explores how saints and sanctity were created and ultimately came to influence complex political and social networks, from the Late Roman Empire to the High Middle Ages. 410 0$aThe New Middle Ages 606 $aReligion?History 606 $aEurope?History?476-1492 606 $aItaly?History 606 $aHistory of Religion$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1A7000 606 $aHistory of Medieval Europe$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/717070 606 $aHistory of Italy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/717050 607 $aItaly$zRavenna$2fast 608 $aHistory.$2fast 615 0$aReligion?History. 615 0$aEurope?History?476-1492. 615 0$aItaly?History. 615 14$aHistory of Religion. 615 24$aHistory of Medieval Europe. 615 24$aHistory of Italy. 676 $a200 700 $aSchoolman$b Edward M$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01062719 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910255335203321 996 $aRediscovering Sainthood in Italy$92528143 997 $aUNINA
