The Cult of Saint Katherine of Alexandria in Late-Medieval Nuremberg

  • Publisher: Routledge

Katherine of Alexandria was a major object of devotion within medieval Europe, ranking second only to the Virgin Mary in the canon of female saints. Yet despite her undoubted importance, relatively little is known about the significance and function of her cult within the German-speaking territories that stood at the heart of Europe. Anne Simon's study adds a welcome new interdisciplinary perspective to the study of Saint Katherine and the wider ecclesiastical landscape of a medieval Europe poised on the edge of religious change. Taking as a case study the wealthy and politically influential merchant city of Nuremberg, this book draws on a wide variety of textual and visual sources to explor...

In Volume IV, the author continues his discussion of his theory of the development of personality and creativity, applying his theory to other interesting subjects. In saying something new, valid, and important about each, he expands his theory. Many of his connections are positive comparisons, while others are contrasting. Further research led the author to expand on themes initially presented in Volume I. The author uses 16 pages of photos to illustrate his points.

This study is based on the premise that the category of woman is too broad and needs to be broken down. It is only when other variables are introduced, refining the field of enquiry, that the historian is able to gain a real insight into the lives and experiences of medieval people.

St Katherine of Alexandria

Medievalists from the US and Britain examine evidence of the third- century saint's popularity across Europe throughout the Middle Ages, and suggest some reasons for it. Prominent questions they address are whether she was popular because she was powerful, or powerful because she was popular; and what made her image so much more open than that of other saints to appropriation by such a variety of medieval saints. The ten essays are from international gatherings in Kalamazoo and Leeds in 1999. Distributed in the US by The David Brown Book Company. Annotation (c)2003 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com).
