This is true for local communities, villages, convents, castles and cities, but also, for kingdoms and empires. Despite its importance, ritual in medieval Central Europe has not yet been studied to a great extent. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e In this volume, seven contributions deal with various examples and aspects of rituals in the late medieval Bohemian lands. The individual contributions explore particular rituals (coronation, wedding, funeral) or environments (cities, nobility, court, church). They share innovative interpretations and newly elaborated sources. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Contributors are: Antonín Kalous, Frantisek Smahel, Martin Čapský, Martin Nodl, Robert Simůnek, Tomás Borovský, and Václav Zůrek.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Frantisek Smahel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9004514007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789004514003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Brill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/07\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 412\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.68lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.10w x 0.94d","brand":"Frantisek Smahel","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48460013863167,"sku":"9789004514003","price":249.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bdca47b9-a352-4a2f-9f72-7d3e9605af04.jpg?v=1777412925","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/festivities-ceremonies-and-rituals-in-frantisek-smahel-9789004514003","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
