Holy Feast and Holy Fast: The Religious Significance of Food to Medieval Womenvolume 1
ISBN: 9780520063297 / Angielski / Miękka / 1988 / 464 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

The occurrence of such phenomena sheds much light on the nature of medieval society and medieval religion. It also forms a chapter in the history of women. Previous scholars have occasionally noted the various phenomena in isolation from each other...

Last Things Death and the Apocalypse in the Middle Ages Edited by Caroline Walker Bynum and Paul Freedman "Last Things will repay the serious attention of readers concerned with any aspect of medieval religion."--Speculum When the medievals spoke of "last things" they were sometimes referring to events, such as the millennium or the appearance of the Antichrist, that would come to all of humanity or at the end of time. But they also meant the last things that would come to each individual separately--not just the place, Heaven, Hell, or Purgatory, to which their souls would go...

ISBN: 9780520052222 / Angielski / Miękka / 1984 / 280 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. From the Introduction, by Caroline Walker Bynum:
The opportunity to rethink and republish several of my early articles in combination with a new essay on the thirteenth century has led me to consider the continuity-both of argument and of approach-that underlies them. In one sense, their interrelationship is obvious. The first two address a question that was more in the forefront of scholarship a dozen years ago than it is today: the question of differences among religious orders.These two essays set out a method of reading texts for imagery and borrowings as well as for spiritual...

Democratizing Inequalities shows that the equation may not...
