Summary

How was religious devotion gendered in Italy after Trent? How did the gendering of religious devotion mark architecture, urbanism, and the depiction of lives of exemplary holiness? Richly illustrated with examples of the complex baroque architecture of the Italian south, the book offers a lively and original analysis of an important problem.
