520    "Insanity and Sanctity in Byzantium aims to understand how
       the use of psychological abnormality functions in deep 
       societal transformations, producing a major shift in the 
       religious, cultural, mental, and social aspects. The book 
       examines a particular set of religious phenomena, in a 
       broadly defined period and area - the Eastern 
       Mediterranean and the Near East between the birth of 
       Christianity and that of Islam - and seeks to reach 
       conclusions on the nature and function of abnormal 
       behavior sanctified by society. Taking as a starting point
       a particular type of saint of Orthodox Christianity, the 
       holy fool, the person who feigns madness, and 
       investigating other types of saints who portray abnormal 
       behavior, such as the martyr and the ascetic, the book 
       reveals the ambiguous character of the boundary between 
       sanity and insanity. It explains the significance of this 
       ambiguity to the religious experience as a motor of social
       movement, and sets it at the core of the socio-religious 
       transformation that changed the Antique civilization into 
       a world of medieval societies."--|cProvided by publisher.
