Description

The medieval "Feast of Fools" came to be known for its inversion of established hierarchies, its boisterousness, and its scurrilous, even sacrilegious, clerical behaviour. However, we now know that many of the most obscene and subversive practices associated with it were, in fact, the misunderstandings, exaggerations, or even fabrications of overzealous ecclesiastical reformers. This book shows that the twelfth-century Ordo Joseph from Laon, in France, is in fact a drama for the Feast of Fools, long hidden in plain sight, intended for performance at Epiphany.
