Medieval Heart

Where is life located? What does it consist of? Where does it begin? And how does it end? This title reveals medieval answers to these fundamental questions. It explores the 'lost circulations' of an era when individual lives and bodies were defined by their extensions into the world rather than as self-perpetuating, self-limited entities.
