Satire, Veneration, and St. Joseph in Art, c. 1300.1550 is the first book to reclaim satire as a central component of Catholic altarpieces, devotional art, and veneration, moving beyond humor's relegation to the medieval margins or to the profane arts alone. The book challenges humor's perception as a mere teaching tool for the laity and the antithesis of 'high' veneration and theology, a divide perpetuated by Counter-Reformation thought and the inheritance of Mikhail Bakhtin (Rabelais and His World, 1965). It reveals how humor, laughter, and material culture played a critical role in establishing St. Joseph as an exemplar in western Europe as early as the thirteenth century. Its goal is to open a new line of interpretation in medieval and early modern cultural studies by revealing the functions of humor in sacred scenes, the role of laughter as veneration, and the importance of play for pre-Reformation religious experiences.

Arvustused

"Anne L. Williams offers a welcome addition to the scholarship concerning late medieval and early modern hagiographical imagery. Well organized, well illustrated, and thoroughly researched, her multi-disciplinary approach marries art history, literary studies, and religious studies to bring new and compelling insights both to extant iconography of Saint Joseph and to lay and clerical attitudes toward his cult in the period(s) she studies." - Betsy Chunko-Dominguez, Savannah College of Art and Design, Speculum 96/3 (July 2021)

"Focusing on the artistic deployment of humour, satire and mockery, this magisterial interdisciplinary study offers innovative readings of Joseph of Nazareth in European late medieval and early modern visual culture = required reading for anyone interested in the dynamic, expanding image of St. Joseph, arguably one of the most important fathers in European culture." - Dr. Catherine Harding, Late Medieval and Early Renaissance Art, University of Victoria
