It is a thorough analysis of how Latinate theological culture interacted with popular religious devotion. In particular it assesses the role of vernacular theology. Eliana Corbari defines vernacular theology as a form of theology that is based neither on a Latin scholastic model nor a monastic one. It is a "third dimension" of theology which was accessible to the laity, and in particular women, through their attendance at sermons and the reading of vernacular devotional works (in this case, medieval Italian treatises and sermons). Through painstaking manuscript work, Corbari makes an excellent contribution to sermon studies, gender studies, medieval theology, and codicology. She demonstrates that Dominican friars preached to an active contingent of laywomen, usually members of confraternities, who not only attended these sermons but re-read them and also disseminated them through book production to the wider Florentine community. 410 0$aTrends in Medieval Philology 606 $aPreaching$zItaly$xHistory$yTo 1500 606 $aSermons, Medieval 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aPreaching$xHistory 615 0$aSermons, Medieval. 676 $a251.00945/0902 700 $aCorbari$b Eliana$01055630 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910455986803321 996 $aVernacular theology$92489194 997 $aUNINA
