Writing Holiness contributes to exciting new critical conversations in the study of medieval hagiography in Western Christianity. Recent years have seen innovative approaches to the literatures of sanctity through emergent theoretical discourses, such as disability studies and trans theory. At the same time, traditional methodologies such as manuscript studies and reception history continue to generate new perspectives on the production, circulation, and reception of the sacred textual canon. Through ten unique contributions that draw from both new and established theories and methodologies, this volume charts the development, movement, and reception of Christian hagiographic texts in localities ranging from the Iberian Peninsula to the Scandinavian Archipelago from the early to the late Middle Ages. Each chapter traces hagiographic development over generic, temporal, cultural, and linguistic boundaries, and considers the broader contours of the sacred imaginary that come into view as a result of such critically intersectional inquiry.

She is the author of Intimate Reading: Textual Encounters in Medieval Women's Visions and Vitae (University of Michigan Press, 2020), Willing to Know God: Dreamers and Visionaries in the Later Middle Ages (Ohio State University Press, 2010), as well as essays on medieval mysticism, hagiography, and romance. Her current research explores death and dying in medieval women's mysticism. Barbara Zimbalist has been a Fulbright scholar and fellow at Harvard Divinity School, and is currently an assistant professor of medieval literature at the University of Texas at El Paso. She has published on hagiography from France, England, and the Low Countries, focusing particularly on issues of gender, genre, and authorship. Her current book project traces women's visionary literature as a discursive mode across hagiography and devotional texts between the twelfth and fifteenth centuries. SUMMARY Writing Holiness contributes to exciting new critical conversations in the study of medieval hagiography in Western Christianity. Recent years have seen innovative approaches to the literatures of sanctity through emergent theoretical discourses, such as disability studies and trans theory. At the same time, traditional methodologies such as manuscript studies and reception history continue to generate new perspectives on the production, circulation, and reception of the sacred textual canon. Through ten unique contributions that draw from both new and established theories and methodologies, this volume charts the development, movement, and reception of Christian hagiographic texts in localities ranging from the Iberian Peninsula to the Scandinavian Archipelago from the early to the late Middle Ages.
