The best new research on medieval clothing and textiles, drawing
from a range of disciplines. The studies collected here range
through art, artifacts, documentary text, and poetry, addressing
both real and symbolic functions of dress and textiles. John Block
Friedman breaks new ground with his article on clothing for pets
and other animals, while Grzegorz Pac compares depictions of sacred
and royal female dress and evaluates attempts to link them
together. Jonathan C. Cooper describes the clothing of scholars in
Scotland's three pre-Reformation universities and the effects of
the Reformation upon it. Camilla Luise Dahl examines references to
women's garments in probates and what they reveal about early
modern fashions. Megan Cavell focuses on the treatment of textiles
associated with the Holy of Holies in Old English biblical poetry.
Frances Pritchard examines the iconography, heraldry, and
inscriptions on a worn and repaired set of embroidered
fifteenth-century orphreys to determine their origin.Finally,
Thomas M. Izbicki summarizes evidence for the choice of white linen
for the altar and the responsibilities of priests for keeping it
clean and in good repair.
