(The open access version of this book has been published with the
support of the Swiss National Science Foundation.) The book
proposes a reassessment of royal portraiture and its function in
the Middle Ages via a comparative analysis of works from different
areas of the Mediterranean world, where images are seen as only one
outcome of wider and multifarious strategies for the public
mise-en-scene of the rulers' bodies. Its emphasis is on the ways in
which medieval monarchs in different areas of the Mediterranean
constructed their outward appearance and communicated it by means
of a variety of rituals, object-types, and media. Contributors are
Michele Bacci, Nicolas Bock, Gerardo Boto Varela, Branislav
Cvetkovic, Sofia Fernandez Pozzo, Gohar Grigoryan Savary, Elodie
Leschot, Vinni Lucherini, Ioanna Rapti, Juan Carlos Ruiz Souza,
Marta Serrano-Coll, Lucinia Speciale, Manuela Studer-Karlen, Mirko
Vagnoni, and Edda Vardanyan.
