Book Synopsis Medieval Saints' Lives by : Emma Campbell
Download or read book Medieval Saints' Lives written by Emma Campbell and published by Boydell & Brewer Ltd. This book was released on 2008 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contending that the study of hagiography is significant both for a consideration of medieval literature and for current theoretical debates in medieval studies, this book considers a range of Old French and Anglo-Norman texts, using modern theories of kinship and community to show how saints' lives construe social and sexual relations. Focusing on the depiction of the gift, kinship and community, the book maintains that social and sexual systems play a key role in vernacular hagiography. Such systems, along with the desires they produce and control, are, it is argued, central to hagiography's religious functions, particularly its role as a vehicle of community formation. In attempting to think beyond the limits of human relationships, saints' lives nonetheless create an environment in which queer desires and modes of connection become possible, suggesting that, in this case at least, the orthodox nurtures the queer. This book thus suggests not only that medieval hagiography is worthy of greater attention but also that this corpus might provide an important resource for theorizing community in its medieval contexts and for thinking it in the present. EMMA CAMPBELL is Associate Professor of French at the University of Warwick.
Book Synopsis This is Not My Body by : Brody Dean Smith
Download or read book This is Not My Body written by Brody Dean Smith and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fifth-century penitent saint often confused with Mary Magdalene, Mary of Egypt, was a sex addict who underwent a radical conversion, literally fleeing to the desert to renounce her former life. She continues to maintain an astonishing literary presence in hagiographical texts, whether from the Middle Ages or in contemporary academic and ecclesiastical discussions. Collectively, scholars have consistently treated the obvious textual elements of conversion, male and female monastic relations, and prostitution. Amongst the numerous vernacular translations and versions, Rutebeuf's thirteenth-century French poetic version of Mary's life provides crucial insights into the conversion experience and the role desire, gender and sexuality play in medieval conceptions of holiness, virtue, and spiritual transcendence. According to the Dominicans, Albert the Great and Thomas of Aquinas, the body and its passions hindered the Christian's journey from sin to virtue, from incontinence to sanctity. Mary of Egypt presents a model for righteous conduct and opportunities for moralization in that she spurned and metamorphosed her body through radical penance and ascetic practices. This project examines Rutebeuf's version of Mary of Egypt in order to explore the ambiguous status of the holy body driven by transcendent desire, that is, an intense longing for the spiritual other. Current scholarship suggests that this is a neglected area of Rutebeuf's text. A detailed analysis of Rutebeuf's poetic version traces Mary's physical transformation from a body encumbered by erotic desire to a being whose corporeal deformation paradoxically represents union with the divine, revealing a new understanding of the redeemed body and the importance of virtue. Ultimately, Rutebeuf's account of Mary of Egypt's story dramatizes how desire, the body and gender threaten both the domain of the sacred and profane.

Book Synopsis Reading in the Wilderness by : Jessica Brantley
Download or read book Reading in the Wilderness written by Jessica Brantley and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2008-09-15 with total page 491 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just as twenty-first-century technologies like blogs and wikis have transformed the once private act of reading into a public enterprise, devotional reading experiences in the Middle Ages were dependent upon an oscillation between the solitary and the communal. In Reading in the Wilderness, Jessica Brantley uses tools from both literary criticism and art history to illuminate Additional MS 37049, an illustrated Carthusian miscellany housed in the British Library. This revealing artifact, Brantley argues, closes the gap between group spectatorship and private study in late medieval England. Drawing on the work of W. J. T. Mitchell, Michael Camille, and others working at the image-text crossroads, Reading in the Wilderness addresses the manuscript’s texts and illustrations to examine connections between reading and performance within the solitary monk’s cell and also outside. Brantley reimagines the medieval codex as a site where the meanings of images and words are performed, both publicly and privately, in the act of reading.
