| Popis | This double-authored chapter serves as an introduction to a chapter of the volume which analyses the role played by relics, reliquaries, and shrines in the sacralisation of medieval Europe. It especially focuses on the power of ornate reliquaries as cultic foci of pilgrimage sites and on the "spiritual seeing" of relics as powerful elements of constructing sacred space. |
