Portrayed on the Heart: Narrative Effect in Pictorial Lives of Saints from the Tenth Through the Thirteenth Century
ISBN: 9780520223202 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 460 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych.

Enshrined in sumptuous metal, ivory, or stone containers, relics formed an important physical and spiritual bond between heaven and earth, linking humankind to their saintly advocates in heaven. As they were carried in liturgical processions, used in imperial ceremonies, and called upon in legal disputes and crises, relics--and, by extension, their precious containers and built shrines--provided a visible link between the living and the venerated dead.
