  Identifies and recovers the excitement and dynamism that characterized ceremonial culture in pre-modern Europe. This work talks about: the relation between public and private space, the development of fully-realized dramas and rituals from earlier forms, and the semiotic code that ceremonies manifested to their audiences.
