Medieval Religion and its AnxietiesHistory and Mystery in the Other Middle Ages /[electronic resource] :by Thomas A. Fudgé. - 1st ed. 2016. - XVII, 300 p. 11 illus. in color.online resource. - The New Middle Ages. - The New Middle Ages.

Introduction: The Feast of the Ass: Medieval Faith, Fun, and Fear -- Chapter One Prosecuting Animals as Criminals in Medieval Europe -- Chapter Two: Piety, Perversion and Serial Killing: The Strange Case of Gilles de Rais -- Chapter Three: Gargoyles and Glimpses of Forgotten Worlds -- Chapter Four: To Hell with the Theologians: Doctrines of Damnation in “Last Judgements” in the Medieval Latin West -- Chapter Five: Sensuality, Spirituality and Sexuality in the Religious Experience of Female Mystics -- Chapter Six: Demonizing Dissenters: Patterns of Propaganda and Persecution -- Chapter Seven: The Stripping and the Shaming of Heretics -- Chapter Eight: Surviving the Middle Ages: The Extraordinary Pursuit of Salvation -- Postscript: The Fickle Hand of Fate. .

This book examines the broad varieties of religious belief, religious practices, and the influence of religion within medieval society. Religion in the Middle Ages was not monolithic. Medieval religion and the Latin Church are not synonymous. While theology and liturgy are important, an examination of animal trials, gargoyles, last judgments, various aspects of the medieval underworld, and the quest for salvation illuminate lesser known dimensions of religion in the Middle Ages. Several themes run throughout the book including visual culture, heresy and heretics, law and legal procedure, along with sexuality and an awareness of mentalities and anxieties. Although an expanse of 800 years has passed, the remains of those other Middle Ages can be seen today, forcing us to reassess our evaluations of this alluring and often overlooked past.
