A volume gathering ground-breaking studies on the anthropology of the body in the Ancient Mediterranean Basin.

This book explores how evolving notions of Scottish identity, royal power, and civic consciousness were staged in Edinburgh’s urban spaces during and in consequence of triumphal entries (1503-1633), through civic ritual, spatial arrangements, and architectural interventions.

This volume is the first English-language study of the baptistery of Padua and its extraordinarily rich fresco program, commissioned by a woman, Fina Buzzacarini, in the 1370s.
