Lamia, Stephen and Elizabeth Valdez del Alamo

Decoration for the Holy Dead: Visual Embellisments on Tombs and Shrines of Saints

Turnhout, Belgium, Brepols, 2002. Paperback. Turquoise wraps, color illustrated, white and yellow lettering; xxxi, 260 pp; illustrated in bw and color. "Devotion to saints, their cult, and memory was enormously popular in medieval Europe. Factual evidence in the form of tombs, shrines, reliquaries, pilgrimages, vitae and souvenirs is legion and attests to the all-pervasive nature of the phenomenon. Despite the massive bibliography on hagiography, few if any books are devoted entirely to the study of saints' burial places. The purpose of the papers gathered here, based on presentations sponsored by the International Center of Medieval Art at the International Medieval Congress in Leeds (1999), plus additional papers commissioned by the editors, is to examine the interaction between the visual arts at specific loci sancti and saints' cults and, further, to enquire whether a corpus of more unusual motifs appeared at saintly sites, beyond the more predictable narrative, symbolic, and iconic representations of saints. The papers address the active role saint's tombs and their embellishments assumed within the fabric of medieval society: rituals enacted at saints' burial places, altarpieces, reliquaries, cloister as shrine, the aura of the venerable past, secular burial near saints tombs, and political and feminist elements in devotional practice. Monuments from Spain, France, Italy, Greece, Hungary, and England are examined and the volume incorporates 104 illustrations."--Jacket.
