| Sumario: | This article aims to investigate the representation of female sanctity in The Golden Legend, by Jacobus of Voragine, in relation to the body and its attributes. Far from being a secondary or degraded component in opposition with the soul, corporeality in general, and the feminine in particular, it is configured as a place of religious resistance and, simultaneously, as the element which allows transcendence in spiritual terms. In this way, the centrality of the body leads to a privileged treatment of materiality and enables a series of protections aimed at its preservation. Here, this multiple and diverse mechanism will be called covering. |
