This volume spans the fourteenth to nineteenth centuries, across
Europe and its empires, and brings together historians, art
historians, literary scholars and anthropologists to rethink
medieval and early modern ritual. The study of rituals, when it is
alert to the emotions which are woven into and through ritual
activities, presents an opportunity to explore profoundly important
questions about people's relationships with others, their
relationships with the divine, with power dynamics and importantly,
with their concept of their own identity. Each chapter in this
volume showcases the different approaches, theories and
methodologies that can be used to explore emotions in historical
rituals, but they all share the goal of answering the question of
how emotions act within ritual to inform balances of power in its
many and varied forms. Chapter 5 of this book is available open
access under a CC BY 4.0 license.
