H148p"This book explores the illustrated saints' Lives that were made in medieval Europe. Cynthia Hahn discusses a broad range of manuscripts and other artifacts, many of which are reproduced here, and analyzes their pictorial and narrative structure. Hahn's book is a virtual compendium of images - many rarely published - as well as a learned study that deepens our understanding of the roles of various types of saints, the nature of their audiences, and the historical moment when individual works were produced."--BOOK JACKET.
