Indoor public spaces and the mobility of religious knowledge in late medieval Deventer and Amiens
This article will address the transfer of religious knowledge in two north-western European cities from a spatial perspective. Our starting point will be the thesis that immobile knowledge in closed places of knowledge ( lieux de savoir ) does not exist: (religious) knowledge only becomes functional in the dynamic encounter with users and it is disseminated through social networks. This approach, which involves the movement from closed spaces to …
Writing as a Religious Lieu de Savoir
Taking its start from the analysis of the notion savoir-pouvoir in Foucault's philosophical work, the article discusses the applicability of the concept lieux de savoir in the study of writing activities in late medieval France and Italy performed by non-professional vernacular scribes. The act of copying a text is evaluated as an active contribution to the dissemination of religious texts. It is approached as a social act and process, which crea…
Introduction
The introduction to this special collection addresses a fundamental issue: the link between savoir/knowledge and the spatial turn in the humanities.

The Religious Field during the Long Fifteenth Century
Introducing a thematic section, this article presents an overview and some of the theoretical considerations resulting from COST Action IS 1301, an international research network devoted to the study of lay religious culture during the long fifteenth century. A particular aim of this network was to discuss new European narratives framing the important transformations of lay religious culture during the period c. 1350–1550—a complex historical pro…
Creating Domestic Sacred Space
Ogni volta che io parlo, o odo parlare sopra materie che non sieno molto materiali finito tal parlare & raccozomi con meco, parmi la detta materia meglio intendere che quando la practicava. Partita che tu fusti, ne' ragionamento che facemo sopra il leggere & ritornandomi il detto ragionamento per la memoria, mi parve comprehendere che quante volte sopra ci n'abbiamo ragionato gi mai nonn' inteso l'un l'altro & per seguita che ogni volta ne siamo …

Holy Writ and Lay Readers in Late Medieval Europe
Late medieval and early modern Europe is characterized by a significant cultural transformation. As a result of this change, the dichotomy between the categories "religious" and "lay" and "Latin" and "vernacular" dissolved into a more diffuse situation and resulted in lay emancipation with regard to active participation in religious life. One of the most significant manifestations of this cultural transformation was the creation of new "reading c…

Challenging the Paradigms
This introductory chapter summarizes the main results of the research project ‘Holy Writ and Lay Readers. A Social History of Vernacular Bible Translations in the Late Middle Ages’ (2008–2013). The project, funded by the European Research Council and the University of Groningen, aimed at reconstructing the process of translation and dissemination of vernacular Bibles in three European areas (Italy, France, and the Low Countries) during the late M…
Reading, Writing, and Collecting

After a short description of the status quaestionis in the research of vernacular Bible in Italy, the contribution will illustrate which processes of cultural transmission and translation contributed to the diffusion of the biblical texts. The essay will also evaluate the role played by lay people in reading and writing activities connected to t…
Artisans and Religious Reading in Late Medieval Italy and Northern France (ca. 1400-ca. 1520)
This essay investigates how a specific group of laypeople, individuals and groups of literate artisans in late medieval French and Italian towns, participated in distinctive ways in contemporary devotional reading culture. Through an analysis of colophons and ownership marks in manuscripts and a study of wills and book inventories, a distinct artisanal devotional culture can be reconstructed, as it becomes visible in the ways that artisans combin…

Moraliteyt saelt wesen. Het laat-middeleeuwse moralistische discours in de Nederlanden
Een oude spiegel voor nieuwe maagden
The article aims at reconstructing the production and the diffusion of the Middle Dutch text Spieghel der maechden, a late fourteenth-century translation of the twelfth-century treatise Speculum virginum. Research shows that the manuscripts containing the Spieghel der maechden circulated in the first years after the translation mainly in communities of tertiaries associated to the Chapter of Utrecht. The treatise, which promoted an enclosed life …
