Medieval Treasures of Toledo Cathedral: Artworks, Relics, Texts, and Textiles

With Medieval Treasures of Toledo Cathedral: Artworks, Relics, Texts, and Textiles, the Treasury Project continues exploring how treasuries accommodated the evolving interests of their holders across the Middle Ages. Following up on The Medieval Iberian Treasury in the Context of Cultural Interchange, Expanded Edition (Brill, 2020), this volume focuses on the precious objects and multiple inventories of Toledo Cathedral (12th-16th centuries). Methodologies from art history, material culture, history, and archaeology are drawn together, analyzing inventories together with textiles, metalworks, enamels, rock crystals, ivories, and illuminated manuscripts. Artifacts act as evidence alongside archival sources, while technical analyses make crucial contributions to the story that long-lived objects can tell us about their origins, functions, changing meanings, and reuse in medieval Iberia.
