AUTHOR

Camporesi, Piero

SUMMARY

In the first part of the book, Camporesi argues that the fear of hell, which prevailed in Europe over many hundreds of years, has now almost completely faded. The Eucharist, or host, the subject of the second part of the book, represented corporeal salvation for early modern Christians and was therefore closely linked with the imagery of hell, the place of perpetual corporeal destruction.Camporesi, Piero is the author of 'Fear of Hell Images of Damnation and Salvation in Early Modern Europe' with ISBN 9780271007342 and ISBN 0271007346.
