Description

Explore the deep significance of the Arma Christi through this scholarly study from Routledge. This work examines the cluster of objects connected to the Passion of Christ, which served as a central iconographic device in European medieval and early modern culture. From the tools used in the sacrifice of Christ, a vast reliquary tradition emerged. This book traces how those objects influenced active and contemplative devotional practices. Readers will find an analysis of how these symbols shaped complex literary narratives, intense lyric poems, and striking visual images. Beyond text and art, the collection looks at how these representations influenced innovative architectural ornament. This volume presents the wide range of intellectual possibilities created by these medieval objects, providing a comprehensive look at their impact on material culture and religious history.
