Recenzje

Kathryn Dickason's Ringleaders of Redemption is a rich and much-needed resource for any student or scholar interested in the emerging field of research concerning the historical aspects of the church and Christian traditions of dancing in the Latin West...The book gathers a comprehensive set of primary historical sources concerned with dance and presents an examination of much of the earlier research conducted about various forms and contexts of dancing that can be found from the medieval period. It also contains a rich source of visual materials-artwork-presenting dance and dancing in the medieval context. One hopes that this book will become the standard source of reference for both scholars of religion and the arts.
