A propos de cet article

Philadelphia University of Pennsylvania Press 1999 Softcover, 363pp., 15,5x23,5cm., illustr. in b/w., in very good condition (covers with some traces of use, otherwise very good). ISBN 9780812217025. When medieval people spoke of the 'last things' they invoked not only the final events of the cosmos, the coming of the millennium or the appearance of the Antichrist, but also the ultimate fate of each individual soul. In the European Middle Ages, concerns about Heaven, Hell, and Purgatory were deeply intertwined with questions about the body, time, and human identity. In Last Things: Death and the Apocalypse in the Middle Ages, edited by Caroline Walker Bynum and Paul Freedman, eleven original essays explore the rich and competing eschatological traditions of the medieval world. These essays delve into the meaning of dying, visions of the afterlife, apocalyptic time, and the eschatological imagination that shaped medieval thought and devotion. From debates about the end of the world to the intimate experience of death, this volume illuminates how medieval Christians understood the ultimate fate of humanity and themselves. Bringing together leading scholars in medieval history and religion, Last Things enriches our understanding of eschatological awareness across Europe's medieval cultures and reveals how changing notions of death and the end shaped social, theological, and intellectual life. Whether you are a student of religion, history, or medieval culture, this collection offers a profound look at how past societies grappled with life's final questions.…
