| book description |

Biblical commentaries vary in scope and ambition, but all contain profound reflections on the order of the world. During the Middle Ages and the early modern period, commenting on the Bible was essential for understanding and interpreting events, and for developing a legitimate social and political framework aimed at salvation. This volume approaches the 'exegetical experience' from various angles: the places and people involved in exegetical production, the intellectual and material techniques used, and the ways in which the Bible was used and interpreted, particularly in debates and in the development of political thought. Contributors are Emmanuel Bain, Paula Barros, Gaelle Bosseman, Caroline Chevalier-Royet, Amélie de las Heras, Sophie Delmas, Roberto Gamberini, Cinzia Grifoni, Robert A. Harris, Frédérique Lachaud, Kristina Mitalaite, Lydwine Scordia, Claire Soussen, and Frans van Liere.
