For nearly five centuries, lay religious groups throughout the Spanish-speaking world have staged elaborate public processions commemorating the events of Christ's passion during Holy Week. In the Golden Age, such processions featured extraordinarily lifelike sculpted images that were naturalistically painted, elaborately clothed and adorned, and surrounded by convincing stage properties and scenography--all of which combined to create a profound impression on spectators. Long dismissed as a minor form of popular art, these polychrome wood sculptures emerge from this book as a unique genre, one that can be best understood within its ritual context. Here, Susan Verdi Webster explores the Holy Week processions of penitential confraternities in Golden-Age Seville, for which many of Spain's greatest sculptors created some of the most illusionistic works ever. She demonstrates how the pivotal role of the sculptures in procession transformed them from carved wooden objects to catalysts for intense spiritual and emotional experiences shared by spectators in the streets.Drawing on extensive archival evidence and contemporary chronicles, Webster is among the first to examine in depth Spanish processional sculpture, its patrons, and its ritual function. Her inquiry wends through a kaleidoscopic variety of arenas--artistic, religious, social, cultural, and political--to provide a fascinating perspective on popular religious devotion in Golden-Age Spain and on a previously undervalued dimension of Spanish sculpture.

Découvert dans un manuscrit de Montpellier, le Livre de l'évêque Timothée sur la Pâque est une source inédite d'une richesse exceptionnelle sur un sujet mal connu et complexe : les controverses pascales du début du IVe siècle en Orient. Cette lettre pastorale, rédigée en grec par un certain évêque Timothée à une communauté non identifiable, et transmise en latin, constitue une source de premier plan concernant quatre déviances relatives aux célébrations de Pâques, déviances dont elle atteste la présence en Anatolie dans le premier quart du IVe siècle : l'une d'entre elles n'avait même jusqu'ici jamais été répertoriée. À travers elles, l'auteur laisse aussi entrevoir une situation politique complexe, que ce soit dans les relations entre communautés chrétiennes, entre chrétiens et juifs, ou encore entre christianisme et administration civile. La présence d'un extrait de l'ouvrage dans les carnets de saint Augustin illustre quant à elle son rôle dans l'histoire des textes et l'importance de la question pascale en termes non seulement de calendrier liturgique, mais aussi d'identité religieuse et d'exégèse.
