' ...this original and important book...is full of scholarly surprises, which change our understanding of how rituals work in one of Europe's greatest cities. ' Natalie Zemon Davis, University of Toronto . ' This is a wonderful book, written with style, elegance, and sensivity. It demonstrates how a skillful historian can illuminate the beliefs and practices of medieval and early modern people as they interacted with a figure who, despite her achievements, was ordinary and familiar to them, not the representation of a distant God. ' Larissa Juliet Taylor, Sixteenth Century Journal , 1999.
