Transfiguring medievalism

Poetry, attention, and the mysteries of the body

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Transfiguring medievalism explores medieval literature, modern poetry and theologies both medieval and modern to show how bodies can become apparent to the attentive eye as more than they first appear. Bringing together medieval sources with modern lyric medievalism, the book argues for the surprising porousness of time and flesh.
