The Art of Affective Piety in the East: Re-Thinking Origins and Effects
Psychosomatic devotion to the crucifixion— “affective piety”— has been upheld as a compelling “invention” of medieval Christianity. However, a rich assortment of objects and texts survive from far earlier in Jerusalem, Egypt, and Constantinople aiding the similar cultivation of spiritual wounding. Dr. Ravi Binning (History of Art, OSU) will discuss how these objects allowed for fear and grief to be cultivated in relation to the Passion—as well as their broader relationship to monasticism and pilgrimage. This event is free and open to the public. For more information, go to the CMRS website: The Art of Affective Piety in the East: Rethinking Origins and Effects | Center for Medieval and Renaissance Studies (osu.edu).
