Jim - many thanks. I'm currently tearing my hair out in handfuls as I'm
trying to get this book to the publisher in time for the research
assessment cut-off date in December and I keep finding more crucial
references! Also I have used up my inter-library loan allocation many times
over. But this does look really important - I shall have to try to find a
copy.
BTW - has anyone yet read Athene Reiss's The Sunday Christ? The same
colleague with whom I'm arguing about the pre-Crucifixion scenes also
maintains there is no such thing as sabbatarianism in the pre-Reformation
period.
Best from here

Dear Maddy,
Since it hasn't been mentioned yet, have you checked James
Marrow, Passion Iconography in Northern European Art of the Late
Middle Ages and Early Renaissance: A Study in the
Transformation of Sacred Metaphor into Descriptive Narrative
(Kortrijk, 1979)? It is difficult to imagine a more exhaustive study of
the relations between biblical and devotional texts and images of
Christ's Passion. And it is all marshalled towards an explanation
of the multiplication of Christ's torments in visual imagery.
Cheers,
Jim Bugslag
