An examination of typology about place in relation to the Virgin
Mary. This book takes a fresh look at some of the seemingly tired
images of the Virgin Mary across the medieval and early Golden Age
period in Hispanic literatures. It explores the Virgin as a gateway
and as a Temple, as a garden and asa fountain, as a scented space,
and as a strong defensive place (fortress or castle wall). It also
explores her as a home and as a nuptial bedchamber, and sets these
images in the context of known liturgical usage in medieval
andearly modern Spain. LESLEY TWOMEY is Professor of Medieval and
Golden Age Art and Literature at Northumbria University. She is the
author of several books about peninsular Marian literature.
