Resumen

ZUBILLAGA, Carina. The material aspects of medieval devotion in the Libro de los tres reyes de Oriente. Nueva rev. filol. hisp. [online]. 2023, vol.71, n.2, pp.757-771.  Epub 08-Sep-2023. ISSN 2448-6558.  https://doi.org/10.24201/nrfh.v71i2.3879.

Since a medieval codex is, among other things, a cultural, material object, this paper argues that the handwriting in the document -given the primacy of vision over the other bodily senses- has a predominantly visual significance. Based on this premise, the paper offers a study of the visual and textual aspects of manuscript K-III-4 of the Libro de los tres reyes de Oriente, and presents it as an excellent example of the material aspects of medieval devotion and of its concrete and symbolic relevance.
