Publication |
2011

Abstract

The chapter deals with medieval artefacts used in liturgical practice during the feasts, especially Easter. By means of manipulation of the artefacts a visual representation of important moments in the history of salvation was provided.

The chapter overviews - for the first time in the Czech Lands - the types of works of art used in liturgical performances, arranged chronologically according to the feast days on which they appeared.
