medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Jean-Claude Schmitt's "La Raison des Gestes dans l'Occident Médiéval" is a helpful source. See the chapter on "l'efficacité symbolique", in particular the pages devoted to the sacramental theology and gestures. I only have the french edition and don't know if there's any translation. This one is ed. by Gallimard.
Best,
Madalena
