{"product_id":"the-sunday-christ-athene-reiss-9781841710402","title":"The Sunday Christ: Sabbatarianism in English medieval wall painting","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis study takes as its subject a striking image found in fifteenth-century churches, paintings whose purpose is to warn the faithful of the consequences of working on Sundays. This detailed study of pictures of Christ, surrounded and wounded by the tools of everyday trades used on holy days, offers an in-depth exploration of a theologically complex subject. It illuminates many aspects of the functioning of late medieval devotion and the active role imagery could play in the formation and practice of devotional morality and communal identity. The medium of wall painting receives overdue attention as an arena of medieval artistic production and is shown to be the site of pictorial innovation and parochial expression.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Athene Reiss\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1841710407\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781841710402\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e British Archaeological Reports Oxford Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/2000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 230\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.66lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.69h x 8.27w x 0.63d","brand":"Athene Reiss","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44138653384959,"sku":"9781841710402","price":77.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_45ac0081-b414-4ece-b338-5bfe7b53ca5e.jpg?v=1687900837","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-sunday-christ-athene-reiss-9781841710402","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
