A classic of medieval studies, The Resurrection of the Body in
Western Christianity, 200-1336 traces ideas of death and
resurrection in early and medieval Christianity. Caroline Walker
Bynum explores problems of the body and identity in devotional and
theological literature, suggesting that medieval attitudes toward
the body still shape modern notions of the individual. This
expanded edition includes her 1995 article "Why All the Fuss About
the Body? A Medievalist's Perspective," which takes a broader
perspective on the book's themes. It also includes a new
introduction, which discusses the context in which the book and
article were written and why the Middle Ages matter for how we
think about the body and life after death today.
