Customer Reviews

Between the 12th and 14th centuries images of the suffering Christ proliferated in England, appearing in sermons, drama, church decorations, and spiritual treatises. Some scholars see these as signs of a new emphasis on Jesus's humanity, while other see renewed emphasis on a terrifying God of vengeance. Ellen Ross argues that these images served as a vivid narrative of God's mercy made tangible in Jesus Christ.
