"Miracles and the Medieval Mind: Theory, Record, and Event, 1000-1215" by Benedicta Ward

"The author examines the theory of miracles, derived from Augustine, that prevailed throughout the Middle Ages, and discusses representative traditional shrines, the miracles with which they were associated, and the growing shift toward popular devotion in this period. Comprehensive, accessible, and thoroughly documented, this is a major sourcebook for medievalists."
