520    "Inspired by the work of eminent scholar Richard 
       Kieckhefer, The Sacred and the Sinister explores the 
       ambiguities that made (and make) medieval religion and 
       magic so difficult to differentiate. The essays in this 
       collection investigate how the holy and unholy were 
       distinguished in medieval Europe, where their 
       characteristics diverged, and the implications of that 
       deviation. In the Middle Ages, the natural world was 
       understood as divinely created and infused with mysterious
       power. This world was accessible to human knowledge and 
       susceptible to human manipulation through three modes of 
       engagement: religion, magic, and science. How these ways 
       of understanding developed in light of modern notions of 
       rationality is an important element of ongoing scholarly 
       conversation. As Kieckhefer has emphasized, ambiguity and 
       ambivalence characterize medieval understandings of the 
       divine and demonic powers at work in the world. The ten 
       chapters in this volume focus on four main aspects of this
       assertion: the cult of the saints, contested devotional 
       relationships and practices, unsettled judgments between 
       magic and religion, and inconclusive distinctions between 
       magic and science. Freshly insightful, this study of 
       ambiguity between magic and religion will be of special 
       interest to scholars in the fields of medieval studies, 
       religious studies, European history, and the history of 
       science"--Publisher's website. 
520    "A collection of essays focusing on the relationship 
       between concepts of the holy and the unholy in western 
       European medieval culture. Demonstrates how religion, 
       magic, and science were all modes of engagement with a 
       natural world that was understood to be divinely created 
       and infused with mysterious power"--Provided by publisher.
