Description

Review 'This book provides an important status quaestionis of the recently conducted research. At the same time, it also offers a significant contribution to the renewal of the history of liturgy - specifically pertaining to occasional rituals in the Central Middle Ages - and an incentive to continue on this path of innovation'  - Paul Trio, Katholieke Universiteit Leuven ‘… this book encourages us to rethink our methodological and conceptual norms when engaging with medieval liturgical texts, and to engage with a broader range of evidence. I recommend it wholeheartedly’ – English Historical Review About the Author Helen Gittos is Senior Lecturer in the School of History at the University of Kent, UK.
