The Carolingian 'Renaissance' of the late eighth and ninth
centuries, in what is now France, western Germany and northern
Italy, transformed medieval European culture. At the same time it
engendered a need to ensure that clergy, monks and laity embraced
orthodox Christian doctrine. This book offers a fresh perspective
on the period by examining transformations in a major current of
thought as revealed through literature and artistic imagery: the
doctrine of the Passion and the crucified Christ. The evidence of a
range of literary sources is surveyed - liturgical texts, poetry,
hagiography, letters, homilies, exegetical and moral tractates -
but special attention is given to writings from the discussions and
debates concerning artistic images, Adoptionism, predestination and
the Eucharist.
