The fourteen essays that comprise this volume concentrate on festival iconography, the visual and written languages, including ephemeral and permanent structures, costume, dramatic performance, inscriptions and published festival books that 'voiced' the social, political and cultural messages incorporated in processional entries in the countries of early modern Europe. The volume also includes a transcript of the newly-discovered Register of Lionardo di Zanobi Bartholini, a Florentine merchant, which sets out in detail the expenses for each worker for the possesso (or Entry) of Pope Leo X to Rome in April 1513.
Industry Reviews
'...beautifully-produced book with its seven colour plates and 38 halftone illustrations.' History Today 'This is a collection which repays the close reading needed to extract the richness of the analysis provided by the authors. It is complex and nuanced and it will add significantly to our understanding of women's importance to religious life in the long eighteenth century.' British Catholic History '...beautifully produced...' Art Newspaper
