Tracing the Gospel text from script to illustration to recitation, this study looks at how illuminated manuscripts operated within ritual and architecture. Focuses on a group of richly illuminated lectionaries from the late eleventh century and combines insights and approaches from sound studies, liturgical studies, and art history.
Considering the interrelations between sight, touch, and imagination, this book offers a new approach to how we understand the way that ancient and medieval people believed they saw, and the role that our imagination played in this process. An indispensable contribution to the history of optics, philosophy, and science.
