Aprašymas
The Danse macabre has a long literary and artistic tradition across much of Europe, from Finland to Britain, France, Spain, the Empire and the Low Countries. It shares its moralising message with the Legend of the Three Living and the Three Dead and with transi monuments. The essays in this volume offer new insights into the dissemination and reception of the Danse macabre in different media from the early fifteenth century on. It also critically assesses the available evidence about artists and patrons and about extant and lost examples, from monumental murals to cycles in manuscripts and print.
This volume complements a collection of studies on the textual Danse macabre tradition across Europe by the same editors (Léglu, Oosterwijk and Ungeheuer), entitled Writing, Dancing and Performing Death across Late Medieval Europe: Texts and Contexts (Brill, 2026).
