Ce livre n'est pas un ouvrage exhaustif, loin s'en faut. Sur les 127 châsses-reliquaires actuellement répertoriées comme telles par l'Institut Royal du Patrimoine Artistique (IRPA), et cela uniquement pour la partie francophone de la Belgique, quatre-vingt seulement figurent dans celui-ci. Ainsi donc, de grandes châsses comme saint Remacle, saint Symphorien ou encore sainte Lutgarde ne s'y retrouvent pas. Néanmoins, une liste à la fin de l'ouvrage vous permettra de trouver les différentes communes de conservation de « presque » toutes les châsses de la partie francophone du pays. Ce livre n'est pas non plus un ouvrage scientifique. Il se veut simplement un recueil des témoignages artistiques et religieux qui parsèment notre pays et dont nous n'avons pas toujours connaissance. Il constitue en quelque sorte un premier regard...

Devotion to saints, their cult, and memory was enormously popular in medieval Europe. Factual evidence in the form of tombs, shrines, reliquaries, pilgrimages, vitae and souvenirs is legion and attests to the all-pervasive nature of the phenomenon. Despite the massive bibliography on hagiography, few if any books are devoted entirely to the study of saints’ burial places. The purpose of the papers gathered here, based on presentations sponsored by the International Center of Medieval Art at the International Medieval Congress in Leeds (1999), plus additional papers commissioned by the editors, is to examine the interaction between the visual arts at specific loci sancti and saints’ cults and, further, to enquire whether a corpus of more unusual motifs appeared at saintly sites, beyond the more predictable narrative, symbolic, and iconic representations of saints. The papers address the active role saints’ tombs and their embellishments assumed within the fabric of medieval society: rituals enacted at saints’ burial places, altarpieces, reliquaries, cloister as shrine, the aura of the venerable past, secular burial near saints’ tombs, and political and feminist elements in devotional practice. Monuments from Spain, France, Italy, Greece, Hungary, and England are examined and the volume incorporates 104 illustrations.
