Paperback. Condition: New. Sheds new light on the concept of "soundscapes", enriching our understanding of the functions of music and sound in medieval and early modern cultures.Scholarly interest in the idea of the "soundscape" has grown steadily in recent years, particularly in relation to the ways in which music and sound shaped communities, articulated social hierarchies, and marked significant events. However, while detailed studies have illuminated the sonic life of individual medieval and early modern cities, broader approaches to historical sensory experience have remained comparatively underexplored. This volume addresses that gap by asking how the sensory phenomena of the past might be recovered and understood. Moving beyond a primary focus on urban spaces and formal musical practice, it places sensory reality at its centre, across both urban and rural contexts, and examines the emotional and physical effects that sound and music exerted on participants and listeners alike.Organised into three thematic sections - sacred soundscapes; sound, identity, and belonging; and processional soundscapes - this book reconsiders the concept of the "soundscape" across the countries of medieval western Europe. It explores rural environments and liturgical atmospheres, sounds during processions and rituals, the sensory dimensions of pilgrimages and sea journeys, and the relationship between sound and collective identity. Drawing on previously unexamined archival sources, it brings medieval and early modern acoustic worlds vividly to life, highlighting diverse musical practices and forms of musicking across a variety of settings, from bell-ringing in medieval Avignon to the progresses of Henry VIII of England.This volume is open access with funding provided by the Universidad de Granada and the European Research Council ERC-2021-ADG no.101054069.…

Hardback. Condition: New. Embraces an all-encompassing interdisciplinary methodology to uncover the symbiosis of saintly and civic ideals in music, rituals, and hagiographic writing celebrating the origins and identity of a major clerical center.Medieval Liège was the seat of a vast diocese in northwestern Europe and a city of an exceptional number of churches, clergymen, and church musicians. Recognized as a priestly paradise, the city accommodated as many Masses each day as Rome. In this volume, musicologist Catherine Saucier examines the music of religious worship in Liège and reveals within the liturgy and ritual a civic function by which local clerics promoted the holy status of their city. Analyzing hagiographic and historical writings, religious art, and sung ceremonies relevant to the city's genesis, destruction, and eventual rebirth, Saucier uncovers richly varied ways in which liégeois clergymen fused music with text, image, and ritual to celebrate the city's sacred episcopal origins and saintly persona. A Paradise of Priests forges new interdisciplinary connections between musicology, the liturgical arts, the cult of saints, church history, and urban studies, and is an essential resource for scholars and students interested in the history of the Low Countries, hagiography and its reception, and ecclesiastical institutions.

Buch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - In the 'priestly paradise' of medieval Liège, sacred music became a pervasive and versatile medium by which the clergy promoted the holy status of their city. While this hotbed of female piety and Eucharistic devotion is recognized as a center of liturgical innovation and clerical writing, the symbiosis of saintly and civic ideals voiced in locally composed plainchant and polyphony has remained overlooked. The key to unlocking the civic meaning of this music lies in the saints' legends and bishops' deeds from which it emerged and in the rituals and performance spaces in which it was heard. In A Paradise of Priests, Catherine Saucier forges new interdisciplinary connections between musicology, the liturgical arts, the cult of saints, church history, and urban studies to demonstrate how liégeois clerics constructed a civic sacred identity through sung rituals in conjunction with hagiographic writing and relic display.Focusing on the veneration and influence of five bishops active between the seventh and sixteenth centuries, Saucier explains how the performance of sacred music accrued new meanings at moments of signal importance in the life of the city. A Paradise of Priests is an essential resource for scholars and students interested in the history of the Low Countries, hagiography and its reception, and ecclesiastical institutions.Catherine Saucier is Assistant Professor of Music History at Arizona State University.…
