Publisher's Synopsis

Christianity is a religion of clothing. To become a priest or a nun is to take the cloth. The Christian liturgy is intimately bound with veiling objects and revealing them. This book brings together 12 essays about text and textile, about silk and wool, about the formation of identity through fibre.
