商品簡介
Academics and three graduate students in the US, the UK, Denmark, and Germany first presented the ten articles of this volume at the annual conference of the Arizona Center for Medieval and Renaissance Studies in Tempe (the year is not indicated). The treatment of popular and religious devotion is applied to a broad time frame, from early medieval saints and martyrs to the writing of George Herbert. Other topics include the affective life of the 15th-century theologian Jean Gerson, the secular and sacred in two 13th-century vernacular works, and the confrontation between the 12th-century bishop of LeMans and the wandering preacher Henry as evidence of the new vigor in the fight against heresy.
