商品簡介
A special edition of the journal Medieval Encounters explores a dimension of the Gregorian Reform and Renaissance of the 12th century that the many other studies of the era have missed or downplayed. Essays cover liturgy and mythic history in The Marvels of Rome; the identity of the Eternal City through visual art, monumental inscription, and the Mirabilia; the Jewish experience of Rome in the 12th century; an assessment of the political symbolism of the City of Rome in the writing of John of Salisbury; Rome in Arabic and Persian Medieval literature; and an imagined city.
