Le processioni medievali di reliquie si pongono come uno degli atti performativi per eccellenza del sacro. I rituali che le contraddistinguono, regolati di sovente dalle gerarchie ecclesiastiche con il concorso di altre istituzioni, modificano simbolicamente, quando non materialmente, lo spazio in cui si svolgono, contribuendo a creare l’immaginario identitario di una comunita. Questo libro, piu che alle costanti individuabili nelle processioni dell’Europa medievale, piu che alla ripetitivita di gesti e comportamenti, vuole mettere l’accento, attraverso una serie di casi esemplari, sulle variabili e sugli elementi di discontinuita delle processioni medievali, analizzando si le componenti dei riti e il ruolo in essi svolto in un dato momento dalle reliquie dei santi, ma provando a spiegare questi dati a partire dalla loro storicizzazione sulla lunga durata.
