This volume seeks--through the work of a number of experts in various fields--to explore monastic life as embodied by Carthusian monks and nuns. Medieval and Early Modern Carthusians are omnipresent in a number of topics in medieval studies--literature, history, art, religious life, and the development of intellectual and theological thought.
