商品簡介
Theologians, medievalists, classicists, and other historians from Europe and North America explore the relationship between liturgy and law in medieval life and the medieval church. Addressing ritual first, they consider necrological evidence of the place and permanence of the subdiaconate, lessons from medieval liturgy from Durand of Mende to St. Thomas More, Latin and Italian prayers in a 16th-century Beneventan manuscript from Naples, and other topics. Then they look at text and law from such perspectives as creed commentary in Carolingian manuscripts, the list of authorities in the illustration of the Collection in Five Books, and Cardinal Duesdedit's Collectio Caesaraugustana in Barcelona. Of the 18 essays, 13 are in English. Annotation c2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
