Wonderful Blood: Theology and Practice in Late Medieval Northern Germany and Beyond - The Middle Ages Series

Bynum argues that Christ's blood as both object and symbol was central to late medieval art, literature, and religious life. As cult object, blood provided a focus of theological debate about the nature of matter, body, and God and an occasion for Jewish persecution; as motif, blood became a central symbol in popular devotion.
