This book looks at the representation of secular figures in Romanesque Auvergne to understand the region's laity and their interactions with the Church. It explores art, history, society, politics, law, theology, and liturgy. Chapters focus on lay donors, avaricious individuals, warriors, rustic shepherds, and a monastic community.
