Description |
Abstract |
David Ganz examines the artefactual as well as documentary evidence for the ritual handling of late medieval gospel books and other liturgical books. He demonstrates how construction of the volumes intended to engage haptic perception and how the art in and on the books models the importance and significance of touching them. |
