This interdisciplinary volume traces continuities and transformations in attitudes toward, ideas about, and experiences of religion and the senses in the pre-modern era. Spanning a broad temporal and geographic range, it challenges traditional notions of periodisation, emphasising the senses' long-standing position as agents of both sanctity and sin.
