Push Me, Pull You - Imaginative, Emotional, Physical, and Spatial Interaction in Late Medieval and Renaissance Art

Medieval and Renaissance viewers demanded art and architecture that provoked emotional and/or performative interactivity. The authors of these essays explore the history of this call and response from the view of both artists and devotees.
