Literal, visual and allegorical itineraries to Jerusalem in late medieval England, c. 1330 - c. 1530

耶路撒冷之旅渗透了中世纪文学、礼拜仪式、壁画和手稿绘画、神秘和虔诚的文字以及制图。这项研究将把前往耶路撒冷朝圣的文化实践和阅读有关耶路撒冷朝圣、礼拜仪式、壁画和虔诚文字的书籍与中世纪文学理论和神圣空间的理论化进行对话，以便提出问题：所描绘的字面、视觉和寓言路线之间有什么关系？它们是如何工作的？它们是用来做什么的？这项研究通过将通常按学科或流派分开的证据联系起来，以中世纪文学创作理论和神圣空间之间不同寻常的对话为框架，做出了贡献。作为一个以本土文化和手稿研究为基础的跨学科文化史研究项目，它将揭示文本、物质文化和宗教改革前夕英国社会和宗教生活之间的许多新联系。

The journey to Jerusalem permeates medieval literature, liturgy, wall and manuscript painting, mysticaland devotional writing, and cartography. This study will bring the cultural practice of pilgrimage toJerusalem and reading about pilgrimage to Jerusalem, liturgy, wall painting and devotional writing intoconversation with medieval literary theory and theorisation of sacred space in order to ask: what is therelationship between the literal, visual and allegorical itineraries depicted? How do they work? What arethey for? This study makes its contribution by linking evidence normally separated by discipline or genre,framed by an unusual dialogue between medieval theory of literary composition and sacred space. Aninterdisciplinary cultural-historical research project based in vernacular culture and manuscript research,it will reveal many new connections between text, material culture, and English social and devotional lifeon the eve of the Reformation.
