Jeffrey F. Hamburger's groundbreaking study of the art of female monasticism explores the place of images and image-making in the spirituality of medieval nuns during the later Middle Ages. Working from a previously unknown group of late-fifteenth-century devotional drawings made by a Benedictine nun for her cloistered companions, Hamburger discusses the distinctive visual culture of female communities. The drawings discovered by Hamburger and the genre to which they belong have never been given serious consideration by art historians, yet they serve as icons of the nuns' religious vocation in all its complexity. Setting the drawings and related imagery-manuscript illumination, prints, textiles, and metalwork-within the context of religious life and reform in late medieval Germany, Hamburger reconstructs the artistic, literary, and institutional traditions that shaped the lives of cloistered women.Hamburger convincingly demonstrates the overwhelming importance of "seeing" in devotional practice, challenging traditional assumptions about the primacy of text over image in monastic piety. His presentation of the "visual culture of the convent" makes a fundamental contribution to the history of medieval art and, more generally, of late medieval monasticism and spirituality.

While the Christian monastic tradition and its development on the mainland of Europe has been extensively studied by scholars, medieval monasticism in Northern Europe has gained considerably less attention. However, interest in the topic has grown steadily, as can be observed from the varied research that has taken place during the last decades. This growing interest can partly be explained by the current multidisciplinary approaches in academic research as well as the emergence of studies on material culture and its entwinement with archival material during the last decades of the twentieth century. It may also be further explained by an increased awareness of how North-European historiography, including medieval monastic studies, has since the nineteenth century been shaped by Protestant views, albeit in combination with longstanding nationalistic political perspectives. Therefore, the topic needs to be revisited, as is done here, not least due to the growing multinational and religious tolerance apparent in present academic studies of humanities. By highlighting Northern Europe specifically, the issue aims also to place medieval monasticism in a broader geographical and cultural context as being one of the active agents that formed the Christian worldview of the Middle Ages. The overall ambition of this Special Issue is, at the same time, to emphasize and introduce novel approaches to the reciprocal formation of the pan-European monasticism through its shifting localities and temporality.

Le présent livre cherche à élucider les rapports qu'entretiennent, à l'époque moderne, les activités économiques – en particulier commerçantes – et les pratiques dévotionnelles. Il s'agit de deux sphères volontiers séparées, avec en arrière-plan, des a priori d'incompatibilité, voire des aversions traditionnelles qui n'ont pas épargné l'historiographie. Et pourtant il est évident que, dans les sociétés d'Ancien Régime, le champ des pratiques de piété a constitué un facteur économique d'importance majeure, mais dont le poids précis reste autant à mesurer de façon différenciée que les attitudes commerçantes méritent d'être analysées avec précision. Quels sont les apports des agents de l'échange au fonctionnement économique des différents cultes et pratiques de dévotion ? Que se passe-t-il lorsque le religieux entre en conflit avec les intérêts économiques ? Comment décrire les formes de dévotion que cultivent les acteurs de l'échange eux-mêmes ? C'est autour de ces questions que le livre organise ses interrogations. Une première partie du livre prend pour objet l'économie des lieux de pèlerinage, une deuxième, quittant les sanctuaires de ce type, s'attache à analyser les conditions de production, les conjonctures et la logique distributive d'objets de dévotion plus largement diffusés. Une troisième section met l'accent sur les possibles tensions entre objectifs commerciaux et impératifs religieux ; la dernière s'interroge sur les dévotions des acteurs de l'échange.
