Inhoud:

This book explores the multiple resonances and representations of the arma Christi, the "instruments of the Passion," in medieval and early modern culture. From the weapons used to torment and sacrifice the body of Christ sprang a reliquary tradition that produced active and contemplative devotional practices, complex literary narratives.
