This lecture will offer some pathways into the rich world of religious materiality and emotional expression around the figure of the Virgin Mary. It will develop an historical arc within which these qualities can be situated, and offer it as a case for reflection on historical practices in the study of emotions and in the appreciation of historical materiality.

Presenter: Professor Miri Rubin, Queen May University of London
