Ekphrastic Medieval Visions: A New Discussion in Interarts Theory - Hardcover

by C. Barbetti (Author)

Explores the transformative power of ekphrasis in high and late medieval dream visions and mystical visions. Demonstrates that medieval ekphrases reveal ekphrasis as a process rather than a genre and shows how it works with cultural memory to transform, shift, and revise composition.
