medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
This one ran and ran on the Medart-l discussion list, under the heading
Gislebertus if I recall. You'll find it in their archive, but set aside a
day....

>This really is Miriam Gill's field....But we have both been working on
links
between visual imagery, liturgy and memory, the way in which a visual image
can trigger memory of liturgical passages or can link with reminders to pray
for dead patrons of the church. Miriam's work is more specifically on the
role
of emotion in stimulating and reinforcing memory.
this interesting topic sounds a bit like what art historian Linda Seidel
attempted to do --with very uneven sucess, imHo-- in her recent book,
_Legends
in Limestone: Lazarus, Gislebertus, and the Cathedral of Autun._ (U. Chicago
Press, 1999 ).
has this work received any notice beyond the rather hermetic and ingrown
world
of art history?
if so, any opinion about Seidel's treatment/application of these ideas?
best from here,
christopher
