Item description from seller

S. Croix, M. Heilskov (eds.) - 296 p., 11 b/w ill. + 32 colour ill. Brepols, 2021. Languages: English. Hardback - Materiality and Religious Practice in Medieval Denmark stresses the significance of the sensory, dramatic enactment that moved the soul, body, heart and mind of the medieval faithful and proposes to revisit and pave the way ahead for research in religious material culture in medieval Denmark. From bread and wine to holy water, and from oils and incense to the relics of saints, the material objects of religion stood at the heart of medieval Christian practice, bridging the gap between the profane and the divine. While theoretical debates around the importance of physicality and materiality have animated scholarship in recent years, however, little attention has been paid to finding solid, empirical evidence upon which to base such discussions. Taking medieval Denmark as its case study, this volume draws on a wide range of different fields to explore and investigate material objects, spaces, and bodies that were employed to make the sacred tangible in the religious experience and practice of medieval people. The contributions gathered here explore subjects as diverse as saints’ relics, sculptures, liturgical vessels and implements, items used for personal devotion, gospel books, and the materiality of Christian burials to explore the significance of objects that moved the souls, bodies, hearts, and minds of the faithful. In doing so, they also open new insights into religion and belief in medieval Denmark. Sarah Croix is assistant professor in archaeology at the University of Aarhus, working with material culture, identities and daily practices in early medieval Scandinavia and Europe. Mads Vedel Heilskov is a post-doctoral research fellow at the Carlsberg Foundation, focusing on religion and materiality in the medieval Catholic West.
