The chapters, penned by an international team of scholars, offer a comprehensive exploration of the subject from various perspectives. They encompass a wide range of case studies, covering architecture, manuscript illumination, stained glass, liturgy, religion, and social life. These topics include the early medieval churches that preceded the current cathedral church of Notre-Dame, the cultural production in the Paris area during the late 12th and early 13th centuries, including the chapels and bridges of Paris, as well as new evidence for the source of the design for a celebrated window in the Sainte-Chapelle. Additionally, the book evaluates the liturgical arrangements in the new shrine-choir of Saint-Denis, constructed between 1140 and 1144, and provides a valuable assessment of the properties held by the Cistercian order in Paris during the Middle Ages. Furthermore, the book investigates the relationships between manuscript illuminators in the fourteenth century and representations of Paris in manuscripts and other media up to the late 15th century.
Paris: The Powers that shaped the Medieval City is an essential resource for Medieval Archaeologists and Historians, providing a comprehensive and up-to-date understanding of this pivotal city during the Middle Ages.
