Description

Disability and Sanctity in the Middle Ages explores how medieval hagiography portrayed disability through the lens of religious sanctity and spiritual experience. Published by Amsterdam University Press and distributed through Routledge, this scholarly work challenges traditional interpretations of medieval religious narratives by examining the intersection of physical difference and sacred devotion. The book moves beyond conventional hagiographic analysis to reveal how disability functioned as a meaningful category in medieval spiritual life, offering fresh perspectives on the lives of saints, their followers, and the societies that venerated them. This comprehensive study is essential for historians, religious scholars, and anyone interested in understanding medieval European culture, the history of disability, and how physical experience shaped religious meaning-making in pre-modern communities.
