内容説明

A fascinating collection of essays by renowned and emerging scholars exploring how everyday matters from farting to friendship reveal extraordinary aspects of early modern life, while seemingly exceptional acts and beliefs - such as those of ghosts, prophecies, and cannibalism - illuminate something of the routine experience of ordinary people.
