Come to the presentation of the book \u201cSacre Ossa Storie di reliquie, santi e pellegrini\u201d <\/b>by Federico Canaccini.<\/p>\n
The Diocesan Museum of Belluno-Feltre is pleased to host Saturday, March 22 at 6:00 PM<\/b> the presentation of the book \u201cSacred Bones Stories of Relics, Saints, and Pilgrims\u201d<\/b> by Federico Canaccini.<\/p>\n
The work pursues the stories related to the world of relics<\/b>, a world that may seem exclusively linked to devotional aspects, faith, and the exaltation of the sacred, but that hides adventurous journeys, deceptions, theological disputes, pitched battles, and centuries-old power relations.
These stories feature not only saints and churchmen but also sovereigns, leaders, extraordinary women, nobles, and minor characters like pirates, thieves, skillful impostors, and a lot of good-hearted poor people. These stories will take the reader from the imperial palace of Constantinople to what remains of Calvary near Jerusalem, from the heart of Arabia to misty Britannia, from abbeys to royal palaces, from small rural chapels to the cathedrals of the largest cities in Europe.
