Book Synopsis

Trade Review
"The translation is on the whole elegant, capturing Vauchez's own luminous prose with considerable grace. . . . The Laity in the Middle Ages is an invaluable witness to the work of the scholar who has done so much to awaken us to complexities of the religious experience of the laity in the Middle Ages." -- The Catholic Historical Review
