In Performance, Cognitive Theory, and Devotional Culture, Jill
Stevenson uses cognitive theory to explore the layperson s physical
encounter with live religious performances, and to argue that
laypeople s interactions with other devotional media - such as
books and art objects - may also have functioned like performance
events. By revealing the remarkable resonance between cognitive
science and medieval visual theories, Stevenson demonstrates how
understanding medieval culture can enrich the study of performance
generally. She concludes by applying her theories of medieval
performance culture to contemporary religious forms, including
creationist museums, Hell Houses, and megachurches.
