Reviews
'Violence abounds in the art and literature of medieval and early modern Europe, but what was at stake for its original beholders? And what does it mean to behold such images today? This volume puts the art of beholding under the spotlight, asking whether we may discover, in the scene of violence, its most defining characteristics. A timely and wide ranging set of meditations.' Robert Mills, King's College London
'I can state with conviction that all the essays are infinitely intriguing and that every one of them is based on exemplary research.' Renaissance Quarterly
'... specialists and advanced graduate students can read with profit these varied angles of approach to the fascinating and, at times, disturbing questions raised by the act of beholding violence...' Sixteenth Century Journal
