Le Sacre et la parole
Le serment au Moyen Age
edited by Jaume Aurell, consultant editor Martin Aurell and edited by Montserrat Herrero
In the Middle Ages, the oath strengthens social bonds. Its ethical and aesthetic manifestations are numerous at that time: royal consecration, crusade vow, peace treaty, fealty, knightly dubbing, pledge of love – and also conjuration, perjury, and curse. Modernity, however, erases the sworn pact.
