Description

Examining various encounters with the holy in the medieval Mediterranean through the lens of the human body and perceptible dimensions of sacred space, the chapters in this volume discuss the complex dynamics of perception employed when experiencing what was constructed, represented, and understood as sacred. The comparative studies represented by the collection include investigations of viewers experiences and perceptions of the sacred in specific locations or segments of space with a focus on the relationships between sacred spaces and bodies, and the conceptual relationships between religious images, holy persons, and objects within sacred spaces.
