Visualizing Medieval Performance: Perspectives, Histories, Contexts

Taking a fresh look at the interconnections between medieval theater, images, texts, and practices of viewing, reading and listening, this volume explores various manifestations of performance and meanings of performativity in the Middle Ages. The contributors-from their various perspectives as scholars of art history, religion, history, literary studies, theatre studies, music and dance-combine their resources to reassess the complexity of expressions and definitions of medieval performance in a variety of different media.
