Description

Explore the complex role of weeping through Crying in the Middle Ages: Tears of History. This volume, part of the Routledge Studies in Medieval Religion and Culture series, examines how tears functioned as a social and ritualistic tool across different societies. By looking at Jewish, Christian, and Islamic cultural discourses, this book provides a deep look into how emotion was expressed through gesture and sensory experience. It covers the spectrum of weeping, from private moments to public, ritualistic performances. This work serves as a vital resource for scholars studying medieval notions of emotion, cognition, and linguistic expression. Through a series of connected essays, the text examines the ways in which crying acted as a prism for visual and social performances. Whether you are researching medieval religion or the history of human emotion, this collection offers essential insights into the cultural weight of tears in the medieval world.
