Building upon recent scholarly interest in mystics and mysticism in late medieval Europe, this book explores the visual representation of female and male saints depicted as brides or bridegrooms of Christ in northern European art from 1300 to 1550. The mystic marriage imagery of St. Catherine of Alexandria, St. Agnes of Rome, St. John the Evangelist, St. Bernard of Clairvaux, and the Blessed Henry Suso is studied through an analysis of a wide range of paintings, illuminated manuscripts, prints, and sculpture. From these case studies, Muir argues that different visual conventions were used in the art of this period to portray the male and female experiences of mystic marriage and suggests possible reasons for these differences. She further considers why comparatively few mystics were visually portrayed in a mystic marriage with Christ, despite the large number recorded as having had that experience. Providing insights into the meanings of the mystical experience when portrayed in visual terms, this book will appeal to art historians as well as to other medievalists with an interest in the intersections of art, religion, and gender.

La mystique, qui est recherche d’une union intime entre l’homme et Dieu, puise notamment ses racines dans le courant néoplatonicien de l’union à l’Un. Nous suivrons ici le fil du néoplatonisme, tel qu’il s’est manifesté dans l’Empire romain tardif à partir de Plotin jusqu’à Proclus, envisageant ensuite la manière dont il a irrigué l’ensemble de la mystique chrétienne, lui donnant ses structures de pensée et d’expérience. L’ouvrage, qui s’ouvre par des considérations générales sur l’expérience mystique, s’achève, après la volumineuse partie sur la mystique en Occident, par quelques perspectives comparatistes sur l’islam, l’Inde et la Chine.
