Holy Rulers and Blessed Princesses: Dynastic Cults in Medieval Central EuropeCambridge University Press, 14 mar 2002 - 490 "Within this context the saints of the Hungarian ruling dynasty - the Arpadians - constitute a remarkable sequence: St. Stephen, the 'apostle king' converting his people; St. Emeric, the virtuous young prince preserving his virginity; St. Ladislas, the 'knight saint', St. Elizabeth; St. Margaret, and other central European blessed princesses, whose mendicant convents mirrored the Court of Heaven. This sequence of dynastic saints provides a unique example of the late medieval evolution of royal and dynastic sainthood, an important category in the medieval cults of saints. Building upon a series of case studies from Hungary and central Europe, and complementing it with a wide-ranging set of comparative data, analysing political, cultural, ritual and literary aspects of these religious cults, Gabor Klaniczay proposes an original new synthesis of the multiple forms and transformations of royal and dynastic sainthood in medieval Europe."--BOOK JACKET. |
