Giles Constable
Ashgate Variorum
Hardback
328
1996
The studies in the present selection of Giles Constable's work concentrate on culture and spirituality in the 11th and 12th centuries though they also touch on the early and late Middle Ages. The cultural articles are concerned respectively with perceptions of time and the past forgery (seen as a reflection of social and religious concerns) entry to religious life preaching and letters and letter-writing. The articles on spirituality deal with the themes of suffering and attitudes towards the self especially the growing concentration on the individual in the religious life of the 12th century.
