Der Band untersucht die komplexen Beziehungen zwischen Hymnus und Gebet in Mittelalter und Früher Neuzeit. Der Fokus liegt auf den vielfältigen Adaptationen lateinischer Hymnen und Sequenzen für den Gebrauch in der volkssprachlichen Andacht. Wie verhalten sich Hymnus und Gebet gattungstypisch zueinander? Welche Formen und Funktionen nehmen volkssprachliche Bearbeitungen liturgischer Lieder in ihren jeweiligen pragmatischen Umgebungen an? Die Fallstudien, die dieser Band versammelt, loten das Spektrum des Gattungs- und Gebrauchswechsels auf dem Weg vom Hymnus zum Gebet aus. Sie analysieren Phänomene des Medienwechsels, Spezifika der Überlieferungsträger und Überlieferungskontexte sowie die poetologischen Innovationen der volkssprachlichen Übertragungen. Weitere Aspekte, auf welche die mittelhochdeutschen, mittelniederdeutschen und mittelniederländischen Quellen hin untersucht werden, betreffen das Verhältnis von Liturgie und Volkssprache, Öffentlichkeit und Privatheit, Mündlichkeit und Schriftlichkeit sowie Gesang und Lektüre. Der interdisziplinär ausgerichtete Sammelband richtet sich nicht nur an die mediävistische Germanistik, sondern auch an die Liturgie-, Musik- und Kunstwissenschaft.

Spiritual Shakespeares is the first book to explore the scope for reading Shakespeare spiritually in the light of contemporary theory and current world events. Ewan Fernie has brought together an exciting cast of critics in order to respond to the 'religious turn' in recent literary theory and to the spiritualized politics of terrorism and the 'War on Terror'. Exploring a genuinely new perspective within Shakespeare Studies, the volume suggests that experiencing the spiritual intensities of the plays could lead us back to dramatic intensity as such. It tests spirituality from a political perspective, as well as subjecting politics to an unusual spiritual critique. Amongst its controversial and provocative arguments is the idea that a consideration of spirituality might point the way forward for materialist criticism. Reaching across and beyond literary studies to offer challenging and powerful contributions from leading scholars, this book offers unique readings of some very familiar plays.

Le sculture, gli affreschi e le poesie di Michelangelo rispecchiano l'ortodossia cattolica, o sono piuttosto l'opera di un seguace della Riforma costretto alla segretezza? La questione della religiosità di Michelangelo è tuttora dibattuta favorendo spesso prospettive fin troppo unilaterali. Questo volume, che riunisce contributi dall'ambito della storia dell'arte, degli studi letterari e della storia della religione, intende affrontare la questione in tutta la sua complessità. Do Michelangelo's sculptures, frescoes, and poems reflect Catholic orthodoxy or are they rather the work of a follower of the Reform, forced to act in secret? The question of Michelangelo's religious belief is still debated, and the positions taken tend to remain unilateral. This volume gathers contributions by art historians, literary scholars, and historians of religion who address this question in all its complexity.

This volume sets out to explore the world of domestic devotions and is premised on the assumption that the home was a central space of religious practice and experience throughout the early modern world. The contributions to this book, which deal with themes dating from the fifteenth to the eighteenth century, tell of the intimate relationship between humans and the sacred within the walls of the home. The volume demonstrates that the home cannot be studied in isolation: the sixteen essays, that encompass religious history, the histories of art and architecture, material culture, literary history, and social and cultural history, instead point individually and collectively to the porosity of the home and its connectedness with other institutions and broader communities.

What role does religion play at the end of life in Japan? Spiritual Ends draws on ethnographic fieldwork and interviews with hospice patients, chaplains, and medical workers to provide an intimate portrayal of how spiritual care is provided to the dying in Japan. Timothy O. Benedict uses both local and cross-cultural perspectives to show how global conversations on concepts like spirituality and the practice of spiritual care are being appropriated and reinterpreted in Japanese contexts. Benedict relates these findings to a longer story of how Japanese religious groups have pursued vocational roles in medical institutions as a means to demonstrate a so-called "healthy" role in society. By paying attention to how care for the kokoro (heart or mind) is key to the practice of spiritual care, this book enriches conventional understandings of religious identity in Japan, while offering a valuable East Asian perspective to global conversations on the ways religion, spirituality, and medicine intersect at death.
