Bøger af Andre Vauchez

Defining spirituality as 'the dynamic unity between the content of a faith and the way in which it is lived by historically determined human beings', Vauchez steps outside the clerical world usually studied to trace the religious mentality of the laity, the ordinary and often illiterate majority of Christians.

This volume features 22 essays on the medieval European Catholic Church: the emergence of the laity within the church from the 11th to the 13th centuries, religion in concept and practice, women's choice, and mystics.
