The Virgin of Chartres: Making History through Liturgy and the Arts
Margot E. Fassler
Medieval Christians knew the past primarily through what they saw and heard. History was reenacted every year in ritual observances particular to each place and region and rooted in the legends of local saints. This book explores the layers of history found in the cult of the Virgin of Chartres as it developed in the 11th and 12th centuries.
