New perspectives on the performance of pre-modern emotions from international experts.

Offers a comprehensive methodological analysis of the structure and functions of miracle collections from the High and Late Middle Ages in Western Christianity.

Drawing on a wealth of new source material from the Low Countries, this book offers a new approach to the transition from the Middle Ages to the Early Modern Period by providing an alternative interpretation to the predominantly Italo-centric perspective of the current literature, and its concomitant focus on style and on Vitruvian theory.
